ah ok, what you are saying is that if you change the keywords the url 
doesn't change, so the risk is that the urls look strange or 
unrecognizable if the keyword is changed.

this is a minor problem compared to the original one so i guess we'll 
live with it. someone with more tech sophistication could recommend a 
new feature for the module or something.
