This doesn't make any sense... What is the point of letting the router run but not filling the
data correctly?!
The router become useless in so many situations because of this.

https://github.com/getgrav/grav-plugin-admin/issues/3

apparently there are apps that are forced to include special case for the built-in web server,
because it doesn't behave like expected. That kind of counters the goal of it, right?

Dear @laruence, this is non-sense. If you allow it to be routed to the script, but you don't
set the PATH_INFO key to what is expected, then that's surely a bug that deserves fixing. If
the script returns 404, go ahead, serve the static file.

This happens for drush which uses PHP's built-in server.

I've been debugging FuelPHP's router because of this bug. Does it really make sense? Why
would a dot mean a static file request? Also, if it does, why was the router fired at all?
I don't really want to run Apache to make my app able to handle requests with a dot in the URI.

Built-in server will consider it as a static file request if there is a dot in the  
SCRIPT_NAME. 

so, it's kind of expect behavior. thanks
