Not a very technical answer, but maybe an easy way of thinking
of things. The second scenario also makes it possible for
Google, etc. to index your web pages since it is a "real" URL.
In the first case, it is possible, but not as straight-forward.
And for proxies/caches to cache the page. I don't know if it
still applies, but proxies won't cache a page that has query
parameters. But path_info just looks like part of URL and will
cache just fine. That's the main reason I choose to use
path_info rather than query params.
On the other hand, I sometimes use query params as a poor man's
cache-control to prevent caching.
