I'm thinking that you may use a app helper for that. Let's say that you are using erb, you may have something like that:
app/views/
shared/
_foo.html.erb
_bar.html.erb
v1/
some.html.erb
v2/
some.html.erb
You can implement a simple helper like that:
<%= shared 'foo' %>
And use something like that:
def shared(template, *options)
# You may have business rules here to discover the path.
render "shared/#{template}", *options
end
You aren't probably using ERB but you have similar ways to accomplish the same
helper feature in almost all of them.
That is not enough?
I'm not against symlink functionality (I'm not even in the core xD), I'm just
trying to understand your requirement here.
