I do not have access to the httpd. However, the corporation I'm
dealing with doesn't seem to mind with rewriting urls per se, it's
just that it happens this particular hickup is a sideeffect of their
rules and they have no policy of changing httpd conf just for one of
their thousand domains just for one particular account (unless they
buy a server).
So, I was wondering if there's a way .htaccess-side only to just not
go into an infinite loop.
