 Status:       patch (code needs review)

"it works" has never been a consideration in Drupal development, don't
let us start to use it. I don't need an i18n module. Had I had the urge
to write one, it would have been based on walkah's excellent start to be
seen here:

I don't see anything non-i18n specific here. let us not pollute low
level functions such as url() with custom hacks.

I need a URL rewrite hook sometimes, here is an implementation, with
ample comments. I looked into arg() to see whether it needs a reset
parameter, and it does not, but it contained a minor bug, which is also
fixed.

This is really needed by i18n module, and maybe other modules could use
it to add some extra information in the query string.

this seems just an evil plot to cater for the evil hack that i18n.module
is. --

killes, while I know you do not like the current implementation of i18n,
that module exists and even works. If you do not like the current
approach, you can always write a better one. And also, please note we
try to introduce non-i18n specific solutions this time.
