"Correct in what sense?" is the necessary question. Trailing slashes on URLs 
tend to be ignored. For args, it could be used as a means of asking for empty 
strings, but it could get pretty confusing. Do we want to interpret URLs like 
http://a/c/f////something// ? We could, of course, but it does seem confusing 
to insist that http://a/c/f is different from http://a/c/f/ and different still 
from http://a/c/f//, etc.

I don't have a strong opinion, since one could argue that the ability to have 
empty strings in args is a good thing. I'm not sure that either version of 
rewriting would do the right thing, but we could write some unit tests to find 
out.

The important thing is to define what we want and be consistent about it.
