title: Rails 3 routes with non-numeric id's
body: <p>I have an object that by necessity has an id that looks something like "1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.14377".  When I try to create a link that uses the id (such as <code>link_to my_object(object.id)</code>), Rails 3 barfs and says that no route exists.</p>
  
  <p>I have verified that I have a valid route in place by trying <code>link_to my_object(1)</code>.  Rails doesn't have a problem with creating this link.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
