Autopath

Issue Summary

From my post in the Usability Forum:

When browsing or entering a URL with the following syntax:

http://acme.com/taxonomy_menu/2/4/6

the navigation menu will neatly expand and highlight the active term. However if opening a URL via the standard syntax:

http://acme.com/taxonomy/term/6/9

the menu will be (for obvious reasons) quite dead.

Usability would be greatly improved if we could map the standard URL (taxonomy/term) to that of taxonomy_menu and activate the menu showing the context of the selected term.

Specifically when using tags, which typically are completely out of context, I feel strongly that we should still reinforce the navigation, showing people where they are and giving them a sense of direction, facilitating associative benefits otherwise missed with tagging.
