Extend RequestDispatcherOptions support for requests without extension
----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SLING-605
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-605
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Engine
            Reporter: Felix Meschberger


Consider a request without a request extension -- e.g. 
http://host/some/content.pdf where the exact resource /some/content.pdf is 
being handled. When handling such requests and including other content the 
RequestDispatchOptions actually do not work because those are explicitly 
ignored in case the request extension is null.

The reason for this is, that (1) it is not possible to replace the request 
extension on included requests and (2) selectors are only possible if there is 
an extension.

The current implementation should be enhanced to set the request extension for 
inclusions should the current request extension be null.

Alternatively we might completely loosen the restriction placed on extensions 
(see (1) above) and allow to replace the request extension just like it is 
possible to replace the selectors.
