The rules that make the most sense to me are:
* "Longest prefix" match (except for "/"); else
* Extension match (which cannot include extra path info); else
* "/" match (i.e. the default servlet) if nothing else matches
without any special cases for exact pathname matching.
I think the easiest to implement (the one Paperclips uses) is
Extension match, ie: checking that the period is not followed by a /.
I don't think the standards going to be much use here,
Nic
