        Fine, so lets resummarize. The list of concerns I recall are:

- What happens if home.html exists both under "/" and
"/WEB-INF/classes"? What is the expected/intuitive behavior? Can we /
should we allow users to override this?
- Eelco didn't like the idea of implicitly mapping resources on behalf
on the user, he prefers explicitly forcing such behavior.
- Juergen wanted to be able to override the search path so he can drop
in a component JAR, then override the HTML it links to without actually
going inside and modifying it.
- Juergen was concerned whether this mapping only works for HTML pages
or for any other kinds of resources and how do we plan on handling
images, etc?

        Feel free to add other ones I might have missed.

        Personally I think we should really focus on automating the
existing functionality of autolink before we try to cram new features
into it.
