Dynamic menus + RequestAction() ?

Hey guys,

We want to use dynamic menus in our website (specially but not
exclusively in "admin panel"). Obviously, our first thought was :
requestAction() + elements.

So, we declared $adminSidebar and a function named : menu() (in
app_controller).

$adminSidebar is set on null, and menu() return this variable in "sub"
controllers. Anything is ok.

But we have a problem, in some cases we need dynamic menus based on
functions ( add, view, edit, index...) and NOT based on whole
controller.

We are looking for a proper solution (can we avoid requestAction() ?).

We can call function from the controller itself. If my current page is
add(), call add() with requesAction(), but due to performance issue we
can't really do that (poor cache :()

Thanks in advance


And sorry english isn't my native language so..
