Hi,
The recent discussion about ".html" at the end of paths reminded me... I've been wondering about the reason why a trailing slash is not allowed in aliases created by the Path module.
Sometimes when I land on a page deep in a website, I want to see more of what the website is about. So I go up a few folders manually... eg. I read
www.example.com/articles/internet/whyinternetisgood.html, then I manually enter the following into the URL: www.example.com/articles/ in order to see the index page containing all the articles.
This reflects the basic function of HTML/HTTP. Obviously Drupal doesn't work like that, under Drupal you would probably need to go to www.example.com/articles. I wouldn't mind being able to mimic the traditional functionality for users like myself that do "manual navigation".
Any thoughts?
