Yes I know. I had some weeks ago a lengthy discussion with BEA
about how they've implemented url-rewriting. At that time, they
even couldn't tell me if it will go into 6.0 - but this may
have changed in the meantime.

My mail was intended for people that may run into the same problem sometimes
in the future, not a call for action ;) Beside that, it's not that difficult
to write a function that moves an #anchor to where it belongs.

BTW.: Whats the correct result of encodeURL("#") (with url-rewriting
turned on) ?
