I was playing around and realized that $_GET makes getting input parameters from the query string pretty easy. It also gives me more flexibility in adding (or removing) the optional parameters, means the user doesn't have to remember the order, and means only values that are desired have to be entered.
Will I be tarred and feathered for going the $_GET route?
It certainly makes more sense to use in-path arguments when they are simple and obvious, and as soon as you start using filter parameters, etc, Drupal core itself uses _GET parameters. Google also advises to do so, especially if you need to move around parameters: http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2008/09/dynamic-urls-vs-static-ur... Gábor
