You guys are correct in your analysis. It is definitely a bug, or at least undesirable, when Mason is being used for a view.
It isn't clear whether direct access of /index should be permitted in the general case - you generally don't want multiple URLs mapping to a single page for SEO etc, but then it's unlikely that someone will be fishing around adding /index to arbitrary URLs. Anyway, I'm just going to allow direct access of /index for now. It'll be in the next release. I'm still going to disallow direct access of dhandlers (dhandler.m, dhandler.pm) and autobases (Base.m, Base.pm); these are far less common names and can be disabled if really necessary.
