Well, that was just a quick bit of sample code. Since I'm converting
whitespaces to hyphens, it's a simple matter of removing "-a-" instead
of "a".

Jerry, I'm not entirely sure that you understand my point. Currently,
they would go to www.example.com/forum/, and if they wanted to go
directly to a thread, it would be something like:

www.example.com/forum/view/?msg=12345

I doubt that anyone is typing this in directly, but the link would
still work, so bookmarks would be fine. They would still go to
www.example.com/forum/; I'm just changing the link to the thread to:

www.example.com/forum/this-is-the-subject/12345/
