 A user is unable to 'view' drafts when there is a splash screen
 (index.html).


 Steps to Recreate
 ====
 0. Set up WordPress to use pretty-URLs
 1. Create index.html (splash screen) in word-press root directory (along-
 side index.php).
 2. Save a post as Draft.
 3. Select View post (draft)
 4. URL will be something like http://mydomain/?p=postid
 5. The index.html page will be displayed, not he draft (because it is not
 using index.php)

 Work Arounds
 ====
 1. Save post as Private, view private is possible.
 or
 2. Do some fancy .htaccess/Apache stuff
 or
 3. Remove index.html and add a fancy if-else block to the index.php page.
 or
 4. Remove index.html and give up on the CMS idea.
