But still... if a user chooses admin for slug, it would cause quite a bit of trouble... My guess is the only way to avoid this is to either hardcode an array of reserved words and keep changing it as you add controllers-actions, or simply do what u mentioned in first post about querying the ACOS table... maybe that + reserverd words would be the best solution
