ok, here we go. Looking at the rest showcase application, when you hit this url:

/orders/10

the REST plugin (to simplify) says "I have to invoke the 'show' method
in the 'orders' action, and set its 'id' parameter to 10". How does
the REST plugin know what to invoke? based on some simple convention
rules which are defined in the documentation:

    * GET: /movies => method="index"
    * GET: /movies/Thrillers => method="show", id="Thrillers"
    * GET: /movies/Thrillers;edit => method="edit", id="Thrillers"
    * GET: /movies/Thrillers/edit => method="edit", id="Thrillers"
    * GET: /movies/new => method="editNew"
    * POST: /movies => method="create"
    * PUT: /movies/Thrillers => method="update", id="Thrillers"
    * DELETE: /movies/Thrillers => method="destroy", id="Thrillers"

so, the REST plugin based on some conventions, saves you the time of
having to define the mappings for the actions and results, among other
things.
