REVISION SUMMARY
  Form data exposed by hgweb is post-processed to expand certain
  shortcuts. For example, URLs with "?cs=@" is essentially expanded to
  "?cmd=changeset&node=@". And the URL router treats this the same
  as "/changeset/@".
  
  These shortcuts were initially added in 2005 in https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/rHG34cb3957d875ce3341c0ec4b86f016a60aded698 and
  https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/rHG964baa35faf8218650d412581f0567eb41ae1ee9. They have rarely been touched in the last decade (just
  moving code around a bit).
  
  We have almost no test coverage of this feature. AFAICT no templates
  reference URLs of this form. I even looked at the initial version
  of paper and coal from ~2008 and they use the "/command/params" URL
  form and not these shortcuts.
  
  Furthermore, I couldn't even get some shortcuts to work! For example,
  "?sl=@" attempts to do a revision search instead of showing shortlog
  starting at revision @. Maybe I'm just doing it wrong?
  
  Because this is ancient, mostly untested code, there is a migration
  path to something better, and because anyone passionate enough to
  preserve URLs can install URL redirects, let's nuke the feature.
  
  .. bc::
  
    Query string shorts in hgweb like ``?cs=@`` have been removed. Use
    URLs of the form ``/:cmd`` instead.
