Web API - Rendering Razor view by default?

Question

How do I get Web API to render a Razor view using the model that it returns? And only XML/JSON when the accept headers (or .extension) is set? Is this even possible?

It seems crazy to require one set of controllers for rendering HTML and another for JSON/XML if they're working on the same models.

AFAIK, that's how it is. Standard controllers should be used for rendering HTML and ApiControllers for JSON/XML.
