[Seaside] Using meaningful links

[Julian Fitzell]

Hi Scott,

Sure. There are a number of possible approaches to this, including
using a RequestFilter around your application, registering a bunch of
"redirection handlers" or (even real applications that share
components with your main system), or just implementing
#initialRequest: on your root component to parse the URLs.

There's nothing built-in to help you generate what the URLs should be,
but you can easily implement something like what you're talking about.
