Further it would be possible to have url specific extension of extra
content and/or extra functionality. Imagine I do not want the breadcrumb
or the lanuageselector on some pages but on other I do. Now I always get
this parts, paying the price that Dominique has described.
let's be careful not to stash too much into the URL space.... the
flexibility would be a bonus, but awkward URLs can be a problem. plus if
we export too many internal features to the outside via URLs, we might
open ourselves to exploits and DoSes.
for instance, the SVG flag rendering is a potential DoS already, because
it's so expensive in terms of cpu cycles. we need to avoid a situation
where a malicious site visitor can trigger all kinds of cpu hogs by
tinkering with the request URL.

IIUC Thorsten didn't mean to code anything in the URL, but choose a
different template and thus different navigation elements depending on
the current URL, resource type, or whatever (e.g., display /news/*
withouth the news sidebar).

ah, i see. thorsten, can you explain a bit more? are you thinking of location-to-feature maps? is that comparable to the locationmaps of forrest you mentioned before? if yes, could you post an example of such a location map if it's not too much trouble?
