Hi Reto, I think you can feel comfortable adding an element to the filter chain that solves this problem for you.
Your filterchain could then look like: RelocatedUriFilter <-- you create this one I18nContentSupportFilter VirtualUriFilter Another option might be to use Apache (or similar component, if you use it in your setup) to redirect these requests before they even reach magnolia.
