# This is an attempt at an improved version of params_for or rspec rails. It is meant to
# support recognition of paths when the Rails environment has been extended via patches like these:
# http://weblog.jamisbuck.org/2006/10/26/monkey-patching-rails-extending-routes-2
# http://svn.danwebb.net/external/rails/plugins/request_routing/trunk/README
# So instead of route :conditions having only :method, they may now have other data such as :domain
