Hi, all,

Recently i've been pasting a lot of /finfo and /dir links into docs and i'd
like to propose a change to how fossil generates some links (which i'll
make, if there are no objections):

Fossil has always implicitly parsed any PATH_INFO part after the first
directory part as the "name" CGI param, so:

/foo/x

is equivalent to ==>

/foo?name=x

without exception (it's done as part of the HTTP response bootstrapping).

My proposal is that we standardize on the /foo/x form for all generated
links. Justification: they simply look better :/.

If there are no objections...
