/**
 * This abstract controller makes it easy to create a RESTful controller.  To use it, create a
 * subclass which defines the resource type and implements get/post/put/delete methods, like this:
 *
 * class Comment_Controller extends REST_Controller {
 *   protected $resource_type = "comment";  // this tells REST which model to use
 *
 *   public function get(ORM $comment) {
 *     // Handle GET request
 *   }
 *
 *   public function put(ORM $comment) {
 *     // Handle PUT request
 *   }
 *
 *   public function post(ORM $comment) {
 *     // Handle POST request
 *   }
 *
 *   public function delete(ORM $comment) {
 *     // Handle DELETE request
 *   }
 * }
 *
 * A request to http://example.com/gallery3/comment/3 will result in a call to
 * REST_Controller::dispatch(3) which will load up the comment associated with id 3.  If there's
 * no such comment, it returns a 404.  Otherwise, it will then delegate to
 * Comment_Controller::get() with the ORM instance as an argument.
