[OpenLayers-Users] How to extend permalink and argparser to support additional parameters

[Eric Lemoine]

Hi Stephen

I don't see a more subtle way than implement two classes, one
inheriting from ArgParser, and another inheriting from Permalink. The
former will deal with the routing-related params in the URL. The
latter would extend the updateLink method so that the resulting link
includes the routing params.

For this I'm afraid you'll have to look at the code of ArgPasses and
Permalink and understand what it does.

Maybe someone has better ideas...
