Igor,
What did you mean here:
------------
if it starts with /resources ( soon to be /wicket/resources? ) or
/?wicket:interface= then it is a wicket url, otherwise we just let it
fall through and be handled by the container.
------------
What is the /resources or /wicket/resources path, are those going to be
new reserved paths in 1.2 or something? (I tend to use /resources for my
images, css, etc. so this made my ears perk up)

i just noticed that RIFE is implemented as a filter not a servlet.
eelco and i tried to figure out what the advantage is, and what we
came up with was that it is much easier to allow the servlet container
to handle urls you are not interested in. we asked bevin, and he
confirmed that this was indeed the reason why he chose to use a filter.
if we switch to a filter we can get rid of the part of wicket where we
have to stream a static resource if the user used a /* mapping and
wicket cannot handle the url.
in fact it should be pretty easy (and quick) to figure out if we want
to handle the url or not:
if it starts with /resources ( soon to be /wicket/resources? ) or
/?wicket:interface= then it is a wicket url, otherwise we just let it
fall through and be handled by the container.
as far as i can tell a filter has the same lifecycle as a servlet so
the change over should be pretty minimal.
the only area i can see being hurt a little is OSGI. i dont know how
hard it is to deploy a filter instead of a servlet. maybe we might
write a shell servlet that wraps the filter if that becomes an issue.
thoughts? ideas?
