Felix Meschberger commented on SLING-251:
-----------------------------------------
It is somewhere in the middle of vanity URL and specialized mapping. Of course
the mapping case could easily be handled by something like
"/~/" --> "/home/"
But this would only influence the ResourceResolver.resolve methods. To also
influence the ResourceResolver.getResource() methods we would have to build in
some mechanism to recognize the ~ character. We could also imaging mapping
~fmeschbe/...
to /home/fmeschbe/... same as in *nix.

> it would be very practical to have a mapping to 'user homes'. i.e. like the
> unix tilde expansion:
> http://host/~/test
> would resolve to a resource: /home/tripod/test (if the request is
> authenticated as 'tripod').
> i don't think that the reverse mapping is needed.
> the user home root resource (i.e. "/home") needs to be configurable.
> possible default values for the user root are:
> /home
> /users
> /people
> but i prefer "/home"
