Dynamic key=>value segments in Zend Router - php

Question

Need to achieve dynamic router param segmenting in Zend Router. The idea is:
have the url: /route/:route/resource/:resource/:identifier, with the following configuration:
'orchestration.rest.dynamic-router' => array(
'type' => 'Segment',
'options' => array(
'route' => '/route/:route/resource/:resource[/:identifier]',
'defaults' => array(
'controller' => 'Controller',
),
),
),
Need to make it support n-number different key=>value router params in the following format:
/route/:route/resource/:resource/:identifier/key1/value1/key2/value2/key3/value3
The second problem is that this should work only if you have the optional :identifier parameter provided.
This is what I've checked, but not sure how to achieve the goal:

Leave static routes.
1) They are cached for better performance
2) if you use rest logic, use POST method, not GET(params in url)
the route
'orchestration.rest' => array(
'type' => 'Segment',
'options' => array(
'routerest' => '/routerest/:action',
'defaults' => array(
'controller' => 'Controller',
),
),
),
use post to consume rest action on server, with Ajax, or other...
(pseudo code)
datas={key1 : param1 , key2 : param2, etc...}
url=yourDomain/routerest/show (show=the action)
send Ajax Request(or something else in another langage with METHOD=POST)
other action like "getdatas"
... use post to consume rest action on server, with Ajax, or other...
datas={id1 : param1 , id2 : param2, etc...}
url=yourDomain/routerest/getdatas (getdatas=the action)
... in your Controller.php
...handle show action in route
function showAction() {
$request = $this->getRequest();
if ($request->isPost()) {
$param1=$this->params()->fromPost('key1','defaultvalue');
$param2=$this->params()->fromPost('key2','defaultvalue');
...
...
} else {... ERROR..}
}
...handle getdatas action in route
function getdatasAction() {
$request = $this->getRequest();
if ($request->isPost()) {
$id1=$this->params()->fromPost('id1','defaultvalue');
$id2=$this->params()->fromPost('id2','defaultvalue');
...
...
if ($id1$=='all') { return $this->redirect()->toRoute ('otherroute', array ('action' => 'xxx', 'paramxxx' => 'xx'));
...
...
} else {... ERROR..}
}
