Hi, I contacted mikeryan about this pathauto patch which seems to work well for the people who have used it and, since they searched it out, seems like a common request http://drupal.org/node/50328 Mike mentioned that he is no longer interested in maintaining pathauto and granted me CVS access to it. I'm not sure that I'm right to maintain it, but I know it's an important module for many many people and the issue queue could use some love: http://drupal.org/project/issues?projects=17345&states=1,2,8,13,14 If anyone is interested in... 1) the above patch I mentioned - it's functionally trivial, but perhaps some disagree whether the behavior is desired or not 2) maintaining pathauto 3) other patches that they feel should be committed. ...feel free to contact me or discuss here.
