Subject: Webrick URIs to autosearch extension sequence (eg. html, htm, pdf) Howto?

Question: how to configure webrick to autoload various file extensions where 
the file extension is not provided, eg. search html, htm, pdf in that order
so you would provide the uri without an extension?

So far am down to filehandlers, or playing with the bit in webrick that
generates the 404

Not Found
`/test' not found.
WEBrick/1.3.1 (Ruby/1.8.1/2004-01-21) at localhost:2000

Step by step guide would be very nice

or possibly a feature request for webrick to make this easy to do (if it
is not already)
