Thanks for the followup Dimitry! Didn't mean to sound like I was 
bringing up a new or unfixed issue with the documentation...I was just 
slow in finding it :)

I took a look at the code you pointed to, but I don't think its quite 
what I'm looking for. My understanding of RealURL isn't too deep though, 
so I may be totally off base.

The code between lines 1290 and 1305 in class.tx_realurl.php is part of 
the decodeSpURL_decodeCache() function so it appears that this only 
comes into play when looking up a URL that is already cached. The issue 
  I'm having is when accessing a page before its URL has been cached at 
all. I guess I was expecting to see similar code in 
tx_realurl_advanced->pagePathtoID() or 
tx_realurl->decodeSpURL_idFromPath() ... anywhere that is part of the 
initial decoding from an uncached pagepath to an ID.  Instead, it looks 
like the pagepath decoding relies on the rootpage_id.

Is there any domain lookup when pagepaths have not been cached, and if 
not, is it something worth adding in the future?

Thanks again for your help :)
