Currently, to point someone at my depot, I have to tell people both an address and a group name, which is annoying. It would simplify life if I could just say "Get this patch from http://njs.myrathi.com/~njs/monotone/depot.cgi/polytony" or somesuch, i.e., embed the group name directly in the URL. The CGI script can get the group from its PATH_INFO; for news distribution one can use the url formats from RFC 1738 which specify news:<group-name> or nttp://host:port/<group-name>, i.e., embedding in the url works here too.

A minor UI issue, but it'd be nice.
