I choose to name each defaultpage in a subfolder "index". This leads to
the sad thing that - when the breadcrumb lists the last visited page -
almost every page is named equally "index".
I have a similar problem when not using a defaultpage: The more pages in
many subfolders I have the more the breadcrumblist becomes useless.
In a installation with ~1000 pages I've about 50 pages called "todo" and
many called "functions" and even more called "faq"
A technical solution for the index-problem would be to replace the
linkname index with the name of its parent-folder. This would be nice
and I remember already having read about such a patch, but could not
find it now.
A maybe better solution would be to improve the whole breadcrumb-feature
by adding the full "path" to the linkname. Of course this would need
much more space, so I was thinking about a similar convention like used
in newsgroup-naming. de.rec.outdoors becomes d.r.outdoors then when
place is insufficiant to display the whole thing. Or maybe we should
also think about an intelligent breadcrumb-list that names the first
different directorypart (read from the left) compared to the current page.
ie.
my breadcrumblist is like
sub1.sub2.sub3.index sub1.sub1.sub1.index sub1.sub2.sub4.peter
and I'm currently in sub1.sub2.sub4.franz
then the names for the above breadbrumbs would be:
sub3 (cause sub1.sub2 are equal to current page) sub1 (cause no equal parts -> we take the first) peter (cause sub1.sub2.sub4 are equal)
thnx, peter
