embed/url uses the current URL as the base, because a continuation represents a step in the large computation that that URL represents. On a technical level, it needs to do this to correctly handle servers that serve many servlets each with different URLs. It uses the base url to get to the continuation table, and then looks up the continuation in the corresponding table.
