I guess we could add this ... but should we really be encouraging folks to junk up their urls with trailing slashes when it's really much nicer just to never mint them in the first place? |

Depends on the whole tone you want to documentation to take on I suppose. Docs can't fix everyone's bad web dev habits, but making the framework more accessible with friendly docs for common problems could be a good thing. |

Common enough issue with a good built in solution in optional matches in routes. I'd only discovered it in an old issue, so surfaced it to the docs. #848 (comment)
