That's it: the use case I have in mind would be Camptocamp.org GPS 
traces, so a simple, fixed URL, ie on

http://www.camptocamp.org/routes/465530 I get the link
http://www.camptocamp.org/routes/465530.gpx

Well, that works, but it's rather inconvenient. Since you seem to have a 
plan for something more general, how about adding a 'Acquire from 
(simple) URL' entry, which you could build on top of to add templating?
