Knop supports both path based navigation (using an atbegin-based url handler) and param based navigation for installations that can't deal with virtual URLs.

So depending on -navmethod for the nav object a URL can be either:
myhost.com/mypath/tothe/page/
or:
myhost.com/?-path=mypath/tothe/page

But I think I'll change the param based navigation to this style instead:
myhost.com/?mypath/tothe/page/

It sure looks a lot cleaner (at least a lot more tolerable than a -path parameter...) and I think it will blend nicely with the Knop architecture. -path will still be supported for backwards compatibility.

I've tried it out and after a few changes to knop_nav and knop_grid it seems to work really well (and found a few bugs along the way, so param based navigation hasn't worked so well with knop_grid lately...). So far I just have a few issues with forms with GET method, but it shouldn't be too hard to sort out.

So when we have myhost.com/mypath/tothe/page/?-sort=name&-desc with path based navigation
we will now get myhost.com/?mypath/tothe/page/&-sort=name&-desc
when using param based navigation

These changes are not in the repository yet since I want to test it more first, but I' open for feedback on this change.
Hmmm, this should have been a branch in the repository if I was just a bit more comfortable with how to handle that...
