Yes I do. Reb, as a user-agent, should not be crippled by being only able to
access a subset of all available URLs.

On Apache, you could work around the problem with URL rewriting.
Or using the "redirect_*" cgi-variables in a custom 404 handler (if your
server implements them -- http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/custom-error.html )
But both cases limit dynamic Reb sites to Apache hosts. That's not ideal,
given REBOL's usual cross-platform flair.
