It does seem a little drastic to me too, but I suppose it is only a
strawman.

Whatever, the key problem with using fixed, special filenames doesn't go
away, it still "breaks the web" as TimBL would have it. I think a sensible,
pragmatic solution has already been suggested - use <link> tag(s) in the
<head> of the relevant index.html (or whichever file is delivered at ../ )

Chers,
Danny.
