[Zope] Why does ZPublisher Client screw up request path?

I've been trying to follow the example at
	http://www.zope.org/Members/lstaffor/ZClientMethod
for using ZPublisher Client to grab some info via
HTTP.  While this works for URLs like
	http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~laird/test/set
it fails for 
	http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/Engr/
because __init__ has
	while url[-1:]=='/': url=url[:-1]

I suggest that a "Don't mess with my path"
flag be added.  Since I'm calling this
through an External Method, I can set the
flag there so that users won't have to see
it.

Thank you.
