I'll try and update my library over the next couple of days to also support regex fragments and converters supporting parameters.
Another part I see is that the high coupling between Django and the URL resolvers (as mentioned in http://sjoerdjob.com/post/is-djangos-url-routing-tightly-coupled/ ) should probably be cleaned up, if it is desired to someday support alternative URL resolvers. I'm willing to provide a patch for the checking part, but I'm not sure if it would be accepted. Do I need to open a ticket for that?
