Will do.
In the meantime, I have nutted out a work around:
1. Create a route that maps the malformed URL to the appropriate
controller
map.register_survey_for_site '/sites/:site_id/register', :controller
=> 'surveys', :action => 'register'
2. Modify the register action in the controller to extract the parent
id
def register
@site = Site.find(params[:site_id])
creator_page_action :register
end
3. Modify the register page to include the parent id as a hidden field
<input type="hidden" name="survey[site_id]" value="#[email protected]}"/>

Once you get your head around it, Hobo lifecycles are pretty neat -
certainly saves a lot of coding. There are a couple of traps though;
don't label your transitions :update (an obviously conflict with Rest
that had me stumped for hours) or :edit (fool me once....)
I have knocked up a working example that I'll write up as a recipe
shortly.
