/**
 * Main file that handles every page request.
 *
 * The main.php does a number of set-up activities for the request.
 * 
 *  - Includes the first one of the following files that it finds: (root)/_ss_environment.php, 
 *    (root)/../_ss_environment.php, or (root)/../../_ss_environment.php
 *  - Gets an up-to-date manifest from {@link ManifestBuilder}
 *  - Sets up error handlers with {@link Debug::loadErrorHandlers()}
 *  - Calls {@link DB::connect()}, passing it the global variable $databaseConfig that should 
 &    be defined in an _config.php
 *  - Sets up the default director rules using {@link Director::addRules()}
 * 
 * After that, it calls {@link Director::direct()}, which is responsible for doing most of the 
 * real work.
 *
 * Finally, main.php will use {@link Profiler} to show a profile if the querystring variable 
 * "debug_profile" is set.
 *
 * CONFIGURING THE WEBSERVER
 *
 * To use Sapphire, every request that doesn't point directly to a file should be rewritten to
 * sapphire/main.php?url=(url).  For example, http://www.example.com/about-us/rss would be rewritten 
 * to http://www.example.com/sapphire/main.php?url=about-us/rss
 *
 * It's important that requests that point directly to a file aren't rewritten; otherwise, visitors 
 * won't be able to download any CSS, JS, image files, or other downloads.
 *
 * On Apache, RewriteEngine can be used to do this.
