If I use {{=URL(request.application)}} in the view I get "/Test/default/Test"
It has added on the current application and controller path. I would like to get just "/Test/" or, if I have used routes.py to set the default application to Test, maybe just "/". This is why I am trying to use the URL helper rather than just generate the string using request.application on it's own.
