Yes, it's similar, but not exactly the same thing. How does your
interface react on too much or few variables?

I wrote some dispatch code, which passes this test (using check egg):

(letrec ((something 'blub)
         (dispatch (dispatch-rules
                    (("/" "/index") ((GET something) (POST 'error)))
                    ("/:pagename"   ((GET 'show-page))))))
  (check (dispatch "/" 'GET) => something)
  (check (dispatch "/index" 'POST) => 'error)
  (check (dispatch "/hi" 'GET) => 'show-page))

This is only the lookup. "something" could be a function and called
with the request object and the "pagename" variable. This interface is
more strict than Marios.

The fallback-handler seems to be the way to use this.
