Certain routes behaviour for 404 links about magento-lts HOT 4 CLOSED

Since Magento's default routing algorithm uses three part URLs, I think this would be considered a feature (implement different routing algorithm) which is outside the scope of this repository.

In your example, the indexAction method of the index controller for the contacts route is invoked, and the final 'index/this-should-redirect-to-404' is parsed into parameters as a key=>value pair. This functionality is used throughout the system, so I don't think we could easily check for "existing" routes without significant changes. Unless you have another suggestion?

I understand that the last segments are parsed into params key=>value pair. I am learning Magento and though the routing process to be a bit weird since it allows for cases like this. Since this is out of the scope of this repository we can close this.

And i actually came here trying to understand how i could create a route of this format:
a/b/c/d/e/f where e is the controller and f is the action.

This module should help with that: https://github.com/OpenMage/OpenMage_Routers

Thank you so much, now it is all clear.
