Yes, but I would add also a:
* REDIRECT_ERROR_NUMBER: an internal unique error number
that can be used by the *CGI program to show a nationalized
error message besides the standard english message.

Yes, there are two distinct cases:
- redirecting to a URL pointing to a static file;
- redirecting to a URL handled by a dynamic program
(*CGI) that needs the whole request context
to show the proper user error message.
