[wp-hackers] Rewrite Experiment

[Sebastian Herp]

I think we/you should pay attention to _this_ issue. I like my 404s and 
as Arthur wrote, we will not have any 404s again, if we use these 
Rewrite-rules :-(

How does the index.php react if it is given a path for something which 
does not exist in its database?
