By validate, I mean if you use an IDE like Dreamweaver and want to check for broken or ophaned links, then it will bring up lots of errors because the IDE won't be able to find the 'friendly/fake' URLs. Its probably not hard on a small site, but on a huge site it would be a nightmare to keep track of what links to where when the site is full of fake URLs before it has been uploaded to the web server.
