I think the tool is great!
Would it be possible to house on labs or toolserver? My only hesitation in linking to it
is then we're dependent on Redwerks generosity in hosting. I think we should leave due
credit to them and such in place.

Another advantage of long URLs, is for such corner case when the sysop team does not know
about URL rewriting and has more important things to do than figuring it out. I have seen
such cases in small company.
That's not really even an advantage. That's just not knowing how to configure
your own software.
The point is moot anyways, because the goal of the Short URL building tool is to make it
so that you don't need to know.
You just tell it where your wiki is. Tell it what path you want. And it'll guess your
server setup, environment, and generate the config you need.
You just then setup that config and poof.
