[R] What is the most useful way to detect nonlinearity in logistic regression?

It is easy to spot response nonlinearity in normal linear models using 
plot(something.lm).
However plot(something.glm) produces artifactual peculiarities since the 
diagnostic residuals are constrained  by the fact that y can only take 
values 0 or 1.
What do R users find most useful in checking the linearity assumption of 
logistic regression (i.e. log-odds =a+bx)?
