I can say right away that this trick won't work in 3.1.6. In that version,
htdig only allows http:// URLs, and it does this validity checking before
any URL rewriting.
On the other hand, the 3.2.0b4 code seems to do URL rewriting earlier on,
so it just might work there. Try something like...
url_rewrite_rules: JavaScript:navAway('\\(.*\\)'); http://mysite/\\1
