As I think I said on IM, the rewrite rule part is bogus, really. It
needs to get out on the static frontends, and just putting it there
doesn't do that - it only affects wwwmaster. And for that, it really
*is* easier to just accept the old URL still ;-)

It needs to go in portal/tools/htaccess/root. I can take a look at doing
this if you don't want to, but not right now (you *really* need to test
stuff going in there, we've had some serious breakage from bad patches
there before)

Other than that, I obviously like this patch much better ;)
