IMO the latter is best. InternalRedirect is a fine technique
for Apache,
where everything must be specified declaratively; when
you've already
got Python, why not just call the display function directly?

To devs: Personally, I would not mind if we dropped
InternalRedirect in
a future release.

I've been using the following for redirects:

raise cherrypy.HTTPRedirect(url)

It however seems rather inefficient (if my understanding is
correct).
Is there a way to forward to a different url without having
to do
another round turn with the browser.
