webapp2.Route(r'/.*', ...) doesn't seem to work about webapp-improved

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,
You are using it incorrectly. All regular expressions inside a route template 
must be enclosed by <>. So to set a "catch all" route you must use:

webapp2.Route(r'/<:.*>', 'handlers.misc.NotFoundHandler', name='misc-not_found')

Or you could use a simple tuple (then it is pure regexp):

(r'/.*', 'handlers.misc.NotFoundHandler')

See the regex template explanation is here:

http://webapp-improved.appspot.com/guide/routing.html#the-regex-template

Also, you can mix tuples and webapp2.Route() instances in the routes list, as 
you wish.
