Comment (by scribu):

 I've thought about it and it's just not the same thing.

 I think the reason all these approaches feel clunky is because the part
 you're interested in, the rewrite logic, should be in WP_Rewrite in the
 first place.

 So, a better approach would be to create a match_rule() method in
 WP_Rewrite and then hook that to a 'match_rule' action called from
 parse_request().
