I also had this issue whenever I did migrations between different web applications that used different URL structures. To preserve my sanity, I now do the redirects in the application level.

I predict nginx will get a lot of competition from servers and applications written in Ru￸st. Until then, it's viable as a reverse proxy and serves static files really great.

nginx has a huge headstart though, it's stable, it's fast, has lots of modules, etc.

I'm open to competition in the field, I'm not sure the competition will emerge as fast as people think (just like competition for other well-established software bricks in general).
