This is wrong: if the URL isn't "rewrite/...", then *nothing* should be 
rewritten; *all* links on the front page should be "urn:..." if 
"rewrite/..." isn't part of the URN.

We use
- rewrite/ in systems that do not understand urn:x-storm
- plain in systems that do understand urn:x-storm

We have two systems of the latter variety now: Netscape 4 (used this 
earlier today) and KDE with the new kioslave installed.

In these systems, when using the gateway manually to get listing of 
blocks, what we want is to be taken to a plain 'urn:...' URI when 
clicking on one of the links. Tried in both Konqueror and Netscape 4, 
it's very annoying when I'm taken to another http address on the gateway 
instead.

This is independent of the backlinks: Backlinks in a URN-knowing system 
are done by setting e.g. http://localhost:5555/backlinks/ as the proxy 
address. So we still use URN but get backlinks inserted transparently.

Changing the above, but thought the ideas should be documented.
