Summary: Option for fast-redirects
Initial Comment:
The documentation within the default "config" file
describes remapping of redirects of the form:
http://some.place/some_script?http://some.where-
else
One of the most common forms I've seen have
something like:
http://some.place/some_script?http://some.where-
else/somepage.html?extra-stuff-also-used-for-
tracking
So, this redirect could use an option to strip the
extra stuff or not.
Others are even more pernicious:
http://ads.nytimes.com/RealMedia/ads/
click_lx.ads/www.nytimes.com/yr/mo/day/
business/04CLOCK.html/0/Middle3/nytmkp01/
nytmkp01.html/36776166666c6539?uri=
http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nytimes.com%2Fyr%2Fmo
%2Fday%2Fjobmarket%2F&Go.x=5&Go.y=9
Should resolve to:
www.nytimes.com/yr/mo/day/jobmarket/
where the ampersand is the delimiter.
Perhaps the delimiter could be an option to the
redirect, or the redirect could have a more generic
{filter} parameter for replacement--my preference.

Here's another (simpler) string fast redirect should see:

I submited a filter in the mailing list. (Well, the helpful folks on the mailing list \
helped me write it). This adds javascript to the bottom of the page which takes care \
of removing a lot of redirects that "fast-redirects" does not catch. I would adivce \
you to use that filter and you can always create multiple copies of the filter with \
different delimiters.

A bug I with various versions of privoxy (including 3.1.1
from cvs, which i use currently), occurs when extracting
the url for a fast redirect with more query parameters
following the url.
Ex. (special chars not encoded here):
http://redirect.com/to?url=http://target.com&id=2
Here, 2 parameters are passed to the script and the
resulting url for the fast redirect should be
http://target.com
but currently, privoxy uses http://target.com&id=2,
which naturally doesn't work (it's not even a valid url).
It should only use the part of the url up to the first '&'
sign, and include '&' signs only in the fast redirect, if a '?'
sign was encountered first (thus resulting in a valid
query).
Another way of telling which part to use in a fast redirect
could be by only including encoded '&' and '?' signs. The
url used above would be transmitted as
http://redirect.com/ot?url=http%3A%2F%
2Ftarget.com&id=2
So, the part after and including the unencoded '&' should
not be used.

Another slightly different example is at
http://searchnz.co.nz, where the URLs come out in the form:
http://data.webads.co.nz/snz.asp?http:%2F%2Fwww.vcomms.co.nz%2Fcontact.htm|vcomms.com
It would be great if this pernicious tracking mechansim
could be defeated.

Doesn't look like it'll be done for 3.0.
Retargetting to 3.2.

Both this problem and the cases where the target URL is not
prefixed by '?' could be solved if se allow a perl
substitution
as the parameter to the +fast-redirects action.
