backend, or maybe even getting rid of the backend all together and
writing every page as static html.  Which likely isn't worth it just
to get easier URLs.

Or just use mod_rewrite to rewrite the URL's from nice clean URL's into the crusty querystrings on the fly. If you are familiar with mod_rewrite it would take 15 minutes, otherwise might take an hour or so to work out what you need.... but you wouldn't need to even touch the backend.
