What's the (technical) purpose of adding t/seaside/ to the path(was: Re: [Seaside] how to remove '/seaside/someApp')

I host my site behind Apache, but not every developer wants or needs to use 
Apache or any other front-end, and there's absolutely no good deployment 
reason to not permit the developer to specify a short path.  Let the 
developer determine the requirement one way or the other.  If adding this 
capability involves difficult development work, well then that's a different 
matter.

So while I do use Apache and URL rewriting for my public site, I have a need 
for the short path option with a version of my Seaside based software which 
I plan to distribute.
