+want to rewrite urls or extract data from them before it is parsed,

+before maypole maps them to actions, classes, etc.
This method is called after parse_location has populated the request
information and before parse_path has populated the model and action
information, and is passed the request object.
You can set action, args or table in this method and parse_path will
