[TYPO3] RealURL and shortcut pages

Greetings,

I am currently trying to identify a way to have canonical names for a page
when it also has a shortcut page linking to it.  I observe different URLs in
the address bar when the shortcut is clicked versus typed in the address
bar.

For example, in my page navigation, if I have

+ root
- shortcut_page
- another_page
- another_page2
--- target_page

I would like the address bar to show "mysite.net/another_page2/target_page/"
in the address bar regardless of whether a user clicks on shortcut_page or
types in "mysite.net/shortcut_page ."  At present, I observe different
behavior depending whether a link is clicked or typed into the address bar.

I tried varying the order of click and type
1. clear caches, click shortcut link in navigation, then type URL
2. clear caches, type URL in address bar, then click shortcut link in
navigation
and observed for both cases when the page has loaded
a. click in navigation results in mysite.net/another_page2/target_page/ in
the address bar
b. type URL in address bar results in mysite.net/shortcut_page in the
address bar

Does anyone have any suggestions for making the behavior consistent?  I
already have pagePath.dontResolveShortcuts = 0 because not resolving
shortcuts would break canonical naming within the menu navigation.

RealURL 1.2.2 (and 1.3.1)
TYPO3 4.1.5

Many thanks,

Jill Anderson
