I don't see why not to use prefix matching. It is more consistent with
the handling of the default application ('', instead of a method that
needs to be overridden), and more general, and the algorithm is only
barely more complex and not what I'd call sophisticated. The default
application handling in particular means that AppMap isn't really useful
without subclassing or assigning to .default.
Prefix matching wouldn't show off anything else in wsgiref, because
there's nothing else to use; paste.urlmap doesn't use any other part of
Paste either (except one unimportant exception) because there's just no
need.
