As we are now revamping the routing, maybe it might be sensible to create a decoupled url_for that only depends on the Routes and bails if no routes have been defined? I'd say the inability to use url_for in the Mailer is more of an annoying coupling problem than a roadblock. There should be a way to generate URLs without a controller.

I agree. However, when people use a Mailer within the context of a request, they typically expect url_for to operate like it does in a view--that is, to reuse request parameters.

Are you certain about that? I for one expect the opposite - that it would be an "absolute" URL. However I understand where it's headed (for instance your apps would love to preserve the subdomain when sending mails). Will investigate.
