I'm not certain that's a good idea, since it opens the door to
dead links.
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/learning/accidentals-and-key-signatures
is a valid link and will remain visible for the next 10 years
(barring truly unfortunate accidents)
http://lilypond.org/doc/stable/Documentation/learning/accidentals-and-key-signatures
will only remain visible as long as we do not change the structure
of the Learning manual.
For the sake of people looking up emails in mailing list archives,
I would prefer to keep the redirect rather than mod_rewrite. It
might be good to mention
http://lilypond.org/stable
somewhere (in the CG?), but only with a caution that only that
link can be safely used (i.e. no subdirectories or exact
filenames).
