> The RewriteFilter translates the requests to the internal view URLs and dispatches the request with the rewritten URL.  e.g.
> RequestDispatcher dispatcher = request.getRequestDispatcher(newPath);
> dispatcher.forward(request, response);
> As a result, the original URL is lost to processing further down the chain.  In some cases it's useful to have access the original URL.
> Potentially the URL could be stored and made available as an injectable component, but a more generic answer would be to expose the rewrite rules so an internal view can be converted to an external URL programatically.  e.g. add matchPatterns or rewritePath to Pages class.
