Clipped a bunch. This is great food for thought. I am missing in this  
scheme how you would know to serve the form for updating. That seems  
to be the real point of /class/id/1111/update. I suppose that should  
be /class/id/1111/edit instead and it would, if it could, properly PUT  
the form to /class/id/1111, yes?
