Layout issue related to ::ApplicationController inheritance about kss-rails HOT 3 OPEN

In my project I got it solved with this diff:

   layout :layout

   def layout
+    if request.url.include?('/kss')
+      return 'kss/application'
+    end

from kss-rails.

I've seen a few people get bit by this and it's unfortunate. I liked that it inherited from ApplicationController that way any helpers or authentication filters were preserved. This sounds like a bug in Rails itself, do you remember which Rails version you were on by chance?

I don't, unfortunately. I think it's very likely that our app is just fairly (potentially over-)complicated, not necessarily that this is a bug in Rails.
