Getting the "pre rewrite rules" uri

[mo...@blubbernet.com]

Hi,

Using MP1 and I have a really small niggling problem that I can't seem to 
find the answer for. We've written our own content handler. There are 
several rewrite rules in the format of the following example in the apache 
config:

RewriteRule ^/page_(.+).html$ /page.pl?page_id=$1 [passthrough]

When we call the uri method on the Apache::Request object that the 
handler has been passed, it returns the value "/page.html".

I want to know the original uri value, from before the rewrite taking 
place... How do I get it? Assume there are lots of rewrite rules of 
slightly different formats and that the handler doesn't know what they 
are.

$r->the_request() is read only and returns the request line.
