=head1 METHODS

This class inherits all the methods of URI::WithBase and URI, and adds

=head2 new()

Automatically sets the base and the the URI to the same initial value

=cut

sub new { $_[0]->SUPER::new($_[1],$_[1]) }

=head2 with()

Sets the URI to the base plus the path and query given, and returns the URI. The first 
argument is the path, the rest are parameter => value pairs, given in any format 
acceptable to URI::query_form().

=cut

sub with { my $u = shift; my $p = shift; $u->path($u->base->path . $p); $u->query_form( @_ ); $u; }
