The  new behaviour is extremely helpful. I notice that there is never  URL
multiplicity  for  users that are logged off, which is good for SEO. As  a
word  of  caution, registered users may link to URL's that  contain  extra
symbolic bits. I suspect this would lead to several identical pages stored
in  search  engine cache (thus ranks leakage and duplication).  It's  that
same problem with PHP-Nuke, which is not SEO-centric.
