Re: non-htaccess redirect using pretext callback [SOLVED]

I wonder if a similar technique could be used to help Kjeld with his article list from custom fields conundrum? i.e. palm off /location/{something} to a form, whose content then does the appropriate
<txp:article_(custom)>call to fetch the matching content to display.
Sure, one can redirect URLs to whatever needed. But I’m not a big fan of clean URLs: how would you translate location=Tokyo&period=Meiji? Messy URLs are much cleaner, in fact.

The ability to rewrite the parts of
$pretextusing the regular ‘pretext’ callback is already a fairly straightforward way to replace the humungous gbp_permanent_links with just a few lines of specific instructions.
There is also a more .htaccess-like pre-pretext way:
if (/* match condition here */) {
$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] = 'f='.$matched_form;
$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] = hu.'?'.$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
}Txp should do the rest. But at this stage $pretext is still empty, so ‘match condition’ must be based on $_SERVER array.
