I plan on shoving this in the app specific routes.py - so it shouldn't mess
with the other apps.
I tried your code, but it didn't work as expected. You have the right idea
though in regards to what I'm trying to do lyn2py. I want to literally
shove anything in front of app/controller/function. It's just going to act
as a URL prefix. Then later on, I will use the request object to extract
this URL prefix and then change the db connection string. Having the URL
prefix is mandatory, compared to just simply having it as args as you
suggested earlier. If you can continue to help me I will buy you lunch :)
I think we are really close!
