Hi!

I must tell that I read only the top message and did not read others due 
to lack of time.

I am against integrating RealURL 1.x as a sysext. The code there is not 
stable. Usually when anybody proposes a change, I have to modify the 
proposed change because it breaks something else. I do not accept new 
members to RealURL project on Forge exactly because most of proposed 
changes break the extension in one way or the other. If it is integrated 
to the core, anybody else can modify it and eventually it will get 
broken like Extbase got broken with translations due to lack of knowldge 
about TYPO3 localisation. I will not be able to help to repair RealURL 
quickly because I mostly focused on my daily work these days.

I think this should be done differently. TYPO3 core should have a proper 
routing layer, which will replace all that ugly 
typolink->linkData->realurl chain. It also should be usable from BE to 
create links and should take care of absRefPrefix, multidomains, etc. 
This should be more or less automatic. Current RealURL is very bad in 
terms of configurations. I planned that RealURL 2.0 will require minimal 
or zero configuration. Routing layer should be like that.

To summarize:
- RealURL 1.x in the core: NO
- RealURL 2.x in the core: possible, dates unclear
- Routing in the core: best solution
