are you just talking about article retrieving or you're also concerned  
in the article upload phase ?


The following thoughts apply in case your question is about the fetch  
structure of your application:

1) use the fs supplier (--enable_sup_fs) and let the "edit.kl1" page  
create the needed hierarchy in the file system where the html article  
will be saved (i.e. 1:1 mapping between the file system and published  
URL);

2) become a beta tester for the "kilt" supplier (that we've recently  
committed to HEAD) which allows you to do regexp-based URL  
dispatching, pretty much like Django does.  This way you could use a  
virtual URL hierarchy and let klone handle the linking to the (flat?)  
file system resource.

Hope it helps.

ciao, t.
