I just found a difference between the URL generated by 
ERXRouteUrlUtils.actionUrlForRecord vs ERXRouteLink. In SimpleBlog, I told 
ERRest that the primary key for a BlogEntry is the title instead of the primary 
key in the table. To do that, I created a BlogEntryRestDelegate class and:

  public Object primaryKeyForObject(Object obj, ERXRestContext context) {
    return ((BlogEntry)obj).title();
  }

  public Object objectOfEntityWithID(EOClassDescription entity, Object id, 
ERXRestContext context) {
    NSArray<BlogEntry> entries = 
ERXQ.filtered(BlogEntry.fetchAllBlogEntries(ERXEC.newEditingContext()), 
ERXQ.is("title", id));
    return entries.size() == 0 ? null : entries.objectAtIndex(0);  
  }

That's working fine for ERXRouteLink, the generated link is using the title 
instead of the primary key, so I get /WOWODC.html instead of /1.html. Life is 
good… until I use ERXRouteUrlUtils.actionUrlForRecord, in that case, I was 
still getting 1.html. 

Where is the difference? ERXRouteLink use this to get the primary key:

  Object entityID = 
IERXRestDelegate.Factory.delegateForEntityNamed(record.entityName()).primaryKeyForObject(record,
 new ERXRestContext(record.editingContext()));

ERXRouteUrlUtils.actionUrlForRecord use:

  record.primaryKeyInTransaction()

which at the end of the chain, calls 
ERXEOControlUtilities.primaryKeyObjectForObject. I changed locally the code so 
that actionUrlForRecord use the same logic as ERXRouteLink and it works fine, 
so anyone have a problem if I commit that change to Wonder?
