There are several ways to configure custom IRI's.  The easiest
is to use an InterMap link.  Just add the following line to
either Site.InterMap or local/localmap.txt :

    x-yojimbo-item:     x-yojimbo-item:$1

This says that any url that begins with "x-yojimbo-item:"
should be rendered as "x-yojimbo-item:" followed by the
path.  In other words, it's a self-reference.
