I'm a little embarrassed to reveal this, master of no trade that I am... My Mason lab is a small ecommerce site where <LocationMatch "\.html$"> hands the file to Mason. Pages contain thumbnails of pictures generated by ImageMagick through Mason. I'm sure this is inefficient, but having only one size of the photo on the server and using Mason's cacheing seems to work pretty well and is easy to maintain.
These thumbnails are included into html source by <img src="/thumbnail/pic_file_name.jpeg/scale_factor.html"> where the dhandler strips the html extension and reads the scale factor. Knock-on effect (I *think*): For some reason Yahoo Slurp has been indexing these URI's as if they really were html pages, and apparently penalizing the site for trying to game the search engine with an excess of pages with little or no content. I'm testing this theory by putting an appropriate disallow statement in robots.txt. I'm posting to mason users to ask if any one might have knowledge related to this they would be willing to share.
