this would indeed be much simpler with 1.5. wicket-examples in 1.5
contains some request mapper examples you can take a look at.
basically, you can use the same idea as LocaleFirstMapper to always
prepend the client name into the first segment of the url - creating
virtual contexts in the url space of an app that runs as the root
context.
