You may be right, I did not read as much into the OPs question as you have. I assumed that _any_ redirect to show from the create should include the extra link, rather than specifically a create initiated from the link you mention. If my interpretatioin is correct then he can just specify a parameter in the redirect_to :action => 'show' in the create action. If your interpretation is correct (which it may well be having re-read the original post) then I agree with your analysis. I would probably put something in the session for this case.
