If you don't want to put an action before name-of-collection you'll
need to create a route for each action, AFAIK.
Router::connect('/showcases', array('controller' => 'showcases',
'action' => 'index'));
Router::connect('/showcases/edit/*', array('controller' =>
'showcases', 'action' => 'edit'));
etc.
Router::connect('/collections/:slug',
array('controller' => 'collections', 'action' => 'view'),
array('slug' => '[-_A-Za-z0-9]+')
);
