Right. That was the intention. URL-rewrite is a hack and a direct
violation of HTTP. The interface is old and rather limited, it should be
avoided whenever possible.
The other interfaces are designed to enable safe standards compliant
ways to perform the desired operations.

Now to get the rest of the world to understand that instead of blindly
following the obsolete tutorials from squid-2.5 or older ;-)
