Opppsss.  Looking again at Don's first post.  It seems he is already testing the newer get_path.  Hehehehe.  Sorry...

I thought about similar stuff as well. There are three options:

* Use a redirect page (/file) - similar to what Timo and I have been talking about for ages.

* Calculate everything from scratch per request

* Precalculate everything and keep the redundant data up2date by triggers

Eventually our URLs are cool and we should be careful about giving them away. Look at how cool Google's URL usage on the result pages is. I want this for my search package :)

How big could a table_get_path get?
