Hmm... Maybe I'm not getting it, but StaticDirectory should be able to
accomodate this.

http://qxApp/designer-controlled-static-files/page1.html
http://qxApp/designer-controlled-static-files/page2.html
http://qxApp/designer-controlled-static-files/page3.html
http://qxApp/designer-controlled-static-files/dir1/page4.html
http://qxApp/designer-controlled-static-files/dir1/page5.html

etc...

Programmatically, all you have to know about is the directory that defines
the top of the hierarchy.  I.e. :

_q_exports = ['designer-controlled-static-files'] # + ['...','etc','...']
designer-controlled-static-files =
quixote.util.StaticDirectory('/absolute/path/to/designer/controlled/files')


or something along those lines.  Then they can put as many HTML files (or
images, or whatever) as they like under that directory, linked to each other
in any way they like.

Does this help, or am I missing something?
