How did the links get dirty in the first place? Do they come from an
external/legacy source? Or are you generating the dirty URLs to
display to the user? I normally name all my routes, then pass in the
arguments needed to recreate them:
h.url_for("pizza", cheese=1, pepperoni=0)
rather than passing in URLs. Why can you not do this?
