Well, back to the drawing board. -> -> Well, it seems unlikely that you'll have both foo/bar.html and foo/bar/index.html, -> so why not accept either as foo/bar? This would both preserve backwards -> compatibility, as well as allow foo/bar/Discussion. -> -> Ethan -> -> No, in order for this to work, the wiki path foo/bar/baz could be any of: -> -> * foo/bar/baz.html -> * foo/index/bar/index/baz.html -> * foo/bar/index/baz.html -> * foo/bar/index/baz/index.html -> -> Or many others. Which is probably even hackier than having both foo.html and foo/. -> -> Ethan
