title: MongoDB Embedded Documents / Documents with Rails
body: <p>I've recently begun playing around with MongoDB on Rails through use of the MongoMapper gem.  I was wondering if there is some sort of way to have a class/object/collection be both a Document as well as an Embedded Document.  I want the same entity to be both included/embedded in other documents, and also be able to exist on its own as an object.</p>
  
  <p>Is this possible?  Am I tackling this problem the wrong way?  Any discussion/advice would be greatly appreciated as resources on the web seem low for this stuff right now. </p>
