I'd also be inclined to avoid name collisions between controllers and functions
("index"), at least until you have the basic site working. At the very least,
those collisions limit the shortening that the parametric router can do, and at
worst it might be exposing a bug that needs fixing. (If it's a bug, we'd like
to know, but it's not the place to start.)
