Do you mean that you want to add parameters to a forwarded URL without

Right: you just forward to another URL.

Right. The request is supposed to be read-only (ignore attributes ;).

This is really the only way to do it. The other option is to create a
new request object and stuff your own parameters into it (or, better
yet, wrap the original request and add your parameters only to the wrapper).

Why do you believe that adding parameters to the URL is not scalable?
