How would I get Turbine to use the extended implementation? Just replace the
$link reference in my screen classes?

Ah, that does the trick. :-)

Security isn't an issue, I'm exposing an interface to a WebDAV service and
want the URLs to reflect the WebDAV path. Currently I'm passing paths as
query parameters, but I'd rather use path info if it's possible. It looks
like Turbine turns any extra path info into name/value pairs though. I was
hoping there might be a way to turn that off? Maybe there's a special
keyword that tells Turbine 'don't parse the URL past this point' or
something?
