Yes.

You described it above: instead of having organic growth, you have a 
disconnected top-down approach.  To get a reasonable result, you need a 
solid foundation.  Some primitives you can work with.  A natural form of 
extensibility you can build on.

The biggest mistake is IMHO that you can't define the extensions yourself.  
You can do some bits here and there with JavaScript, but it's merely inside 
the available framework.

That's not an URL, that's a public key (in base85).  It doesn't work outside 
the net2o protocol.

Or do you mean the URL on net2o.de leading to the fossil wiki?  Yes, 
apparently the Fossil authors have removed the shortcut paths for the wiki 
:-(.
