You totally lost me with the "translate_name" and "map_to_storage", I
will have to do some reading on it.

Issac,

I am not exactly sure how I would leverage either the translate_name
hook or map_to_storage hook.  The best I can figure is that I should
hook translate_name and this is the translation:

/coolapp?<params> --> /coolapp?type=index&<params>

/coolapp/images?<params> --> /coolapp?type=image&<params>

Do I have the right idea?

Sam
