The trouble (besides writing the same code for 5 web servers) is that
you have to make web server detect whether you want to access workdir or
gitweb from URL alone...

...and still you wouldn't have nice UI integration.

I wonder if this should be solved via new actions, for example
'worktree' and 'file' (which could also be a solution to problem in 2.)
via URI rewriting), or via new symbolic "hash" name, for example
'WORKTREE' (like 'HEAD').

Hmmm... while at it, perhaps we can add browsing of INDEX version of files?
