Good question!

I see four possibiliies

   1) return the object
      This results in http://example.com/permalink/1234 returning the
      object (good for search engines)

   2) redirect to the object
      This results in http://example.com/original/location/of/item
      (is this good for search engines?)

   3+4) return/redirect to the view method or to the bare object?
        Resulting in http://example.com/permalink/1234 or 
        http://example.com/permalink/1234/view or ...

And doing the permalink/1234 thing looks like it'll be necessary to make a
new content type (hmmm).

I'm not bound to names, do you have a better name?

What about 'permalink'? 

   http://example.com/permalink/1234 (where 1234 is the unique id of the document)
