There probably an easier way to accomplish that. Wee already supports 
named_callbacks:

   r.anchor.named_callback('test') { ... }

All you have to do is, after the action was invoked, to put the 
action-callback name into the regual URL, e.g. from

   # before action was invoked (URL generated from render phase)
   /app/?test

to:

   # after action was invoked (redirected URL)
   /app/test

That should be pretty easy to do.
