Obsolete:Action paths
Some of my old notes from 2008:
$action = $this->getVal('Action'); ^^^^ what in the fuck is this? this shouldn't work at all....
issues...
Safety of raw? /raw/Foo.html is unsafe
Should we use new actions in place of some old specials?

Death to index.php!
But we have the robots.txt issue.....
How can we mark things out by prefix?
Use the submit action prefix consistently for things that would go to view otherwise...

Maybe even use it as a generic fallback replacing index.php:
'Submit' sounds like 'post my article' though...
Well, we could rename it. Maybe 'action' would do... :D
