lol, tell it my client.
The problem is when you do not do the rewrite you will end up to use
absolute urls for all images, css, etc. since the client browser will
interpret the "/" on the end as directory screwing up the relative
imports. Meaning you have either lots of test whether or not we have "/"
on the end or do a rewrite.

Hmm, sorry but the above is not working for me.

Yeah, I meant more round trips.
Thanks for your feedback.
