We've experimented with two different URL Rewrite filters and are pretty
happy with the Ionic URL Rewrite filter, though it doesn't support a new
requirement we are looking for.  

The other filter we evaluated was Helicon Lite, but it seemed kind of
flaky and did not actually perform as expected.

In both cases, the URL rewrite rules are defined in INI files.
Unfortunately if you have a site where you want the flexibility of
creating any URL you want and have it linked to a specific piece of
content stored in a CMS, it becomes manual labor to have to maintain the
INI file.  You can always write an interface and logic to
programmatically update the INI file with the URLs if necessary.

.htaccess is an Apache thing....

I've not had a lot of good luck with URL rewriting on IIS.  There are
a couple of filters out there that can do it, but it seems most say
they're not for production.
