I did search the archives but didn't find this answer. I'll try again.
mod_rewrite is very Apache specific and our deployment platform is not
Apache.
In my opinion the verbosity of the URLs does matter because I feel it
exposes too much information about technology choices to the end user.
Let's not forget who we write applications for, it's usually not ourselves.
Thanks for your help.

Please search the archives before posting because this has come up a
bazillion times in the past.
Right now, we suggest that you use mod_rewrite.
Also, that "verbose" stuff really doesn't matter since you don't have to
type that in. That is what the $link object is for.
