If I understand correctly, this is somewhat similar to a sort of url dispatcher once I implemented (without type declarations) but never bothered to use: http://schemers.ucpel.tche.br/mario/url-dispatcher.html (code at http://schemers.ucpel.tche.br/mario/url-dispatcher.scm). It supports environments (something like namespaces for URLs mapped to Scheme procedures), has some syntax for defining URL mappings and handles GET and POST variables. A hacked http:find-resource is required (not a good approach -- it would be better implemented using a special fallback-handler). Hope it makes sense.
