the LIST command isn't part of the 7 REST actions... so using list, is un-restful!
I'm still not convinced that the if statment in the RJS file is the way to go.... for fun I made a new RJS file, called it index.js2.rjs and made a new MIME type in environment.rb and it seems to work well... I've got to maintain two RJS files, but to me it makes sense because they're rendering two different views using two different partials... the only thing that is the same is the controller action that fetches the company... doing the If in the RJS kinda fells as dirty as putting an IF in the view....
