# that should be considered an action. For instance, an HTTP controller
# with a template matching the action name is considered to exist.

# also provide a method (like +_handle_method_missing+) to handle
# the case.

# returns +nil+, an +AbstractController::ActionNotFound+ exception will be raised.
