Wanted to add my support for this. Personally I'd be totally in favour of considering something along these lines for core, once there's a fully proven design.
The capture syntax is: * Far simpler. * Meets pretty much every single real-world case I ever see. * Gives us type coercion. * Also able to support regex fragments if needed. Eg see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5870188/does-flask-support-regular-expressions-in-its-url-routing Given that we could continue to keep the existing style around as well, this is an area where I'd be happy to see Django take a step forward. Sticking with the path->existing regex mapping implementation sounds like the best tack, at least initially, rather than getting bogged down in API discussions around how we'd tackle a routing API if we wanted to support non-path routing.
