Well, to avoid such a horrible situation, and to still have non-ugly
urls, I have my script named, say, index, and use PATH_INFO to grok
the parameters. If you go to http://mysite/index/somepage/action,
PATH_INFO will be /somepage/action.

Very nice solution. And it does not rely on any rewrite rules and
does not break if hosters are ignorant.
