I had the same issue as you, and none of the alternatives (explicit declaration or publishing) was good enough. There were also some alternatives which required changing too much code.

This is why I wrote a class called AdvancedRoute, which serves as a drop in replacement.

It can be used by simply replacing Route::controller with AdvancedRoute::controller like this:

AdvancedRoute::controller('users','UserController');
Full information how to install and use find at the GitHub repo at:

Hope you find this useful.
