[Facebooker-talk] redirect with application add

[David Clements]

Cool.

1) new_api?  is newish I think.

2) I think we have a custom starts_with , some legacy thing.

3) The next path is definitely kludgey.  I'd love to see what you have.

Also, one note.  If you notice the code that adds the "/" to the path.  I am
not sure if that is currently necessary but there was a difference between
the new facebook implementation and the old implementation of the next
parameter.
