You could write a custom viewHelper adding controllerName and actionName 
to $argumentsToBeExcludedFromQueryString. (taking my patch into account)

IMHO we do not have to stay in sync with FLOW3 here. The hole routing 
works little different in v4.

In FLOW3 (without framework like v5) you're not able to determine which 
controllerAction to use without relying on the GET-parameters. In 
extbase we can use plugin config, TS, flexform, etc pp so we do not 
_need_ the parameters.

this is not an realUrl specific problem ;) even without realUrl some 
would like to avoid too much get-params.

as long as you don't take further configuration on your plugin, you need 
the get-parameter to distinguish, which controller to use. IMHO the 
_default behaviour_ should be: allways include controllerName, include 
actionName if not default.

with default configuration your plugin would not be able to distinguish, 
what to do ... so, that would be a bad thing to use as default. ;-)

i suggest keeping the default behaviour but allowing to overwrite it if 
wanted.
