 The most common usage of {{{add_rewrite_rule()}}} looks something like
 this:

 {{{
 add_rewrite_rule( 'some/path/([^/]+)/?$',
 'index.php?some_var=$matches[1]&maybe_some_flag=1' );
 }}}

 That's not very pretty.

 Here's what it could look like instead:

 {{{
 add_rewrite_rule( 'some/path/([^/]+)/?$', array(
   'some_var' => '$matches[1]',
   'maybe_some_flag' => 1
 ) );
 }}}

 In the rare case when you want to use something other than 'index.php' in
 the front (i.e. an external rule), you can either fall back to the old
 form or just use add_external_rule().
