- ``repoze.bfg.traversal.model_url`` now always appends a slash to

    all generated URLs unless further elements are passed in as the
    third and following arguments.  Rationale: views often use
    ``model_url`` without the third-and-following arguments in order
    to generate a URL for a model in order to point at the default
    view of a model.  The URL that points to the default view of the
    *root* model is technically ``http://mysite/`` as opposed to
    ``http://mysite`` (browsers happen to ask for '/' implicitly in
    the GET request).  Because URLs are never automatically generated
    for anything *except* models by ``model_url``, and because the
    root model is not really special, we continue this pattern.  The
    impact of this change is minimal (at most you will have too many
    slashes in your URL, which BFG deals with gracefully anyway).

Prep for 0.4.8.
