Better support for solr on other urls than apachesolr_search

Inside of apachesolr_search_search is some code that gets values from the $_GET and arg(1) which makes it hard to override those values.

I'm trying to have search respond at the URL of "example.com/explore/keywords here" and in my callback I do:

  $results = search_data($keys, $type); 

Later on, though, the code gets upset at:

        $results = apachesolr_search_execute($keys, $filters, $solrsort, 'search/'. arg(1), $page); 

I could change my URL to be "explore/apachesolr_search" but that is ugly. I could use url_rewrite_inbound/outbound, but that's also ugly/painful/not-performance helpful.

So, I changed apachesolr_search.module to read:

        $results = apachesolr_search_execute($keys, $filters, $solrsort, 'search/apachesolr_search', $page); 

And that works fine. I guess an alternative is to just call apachesolr_search_execute directly. Is that the better solution to this problem?
