Description

Consider the following mapping for JCR Resource Resolver URL Mapping:

/content/somesite/en-us/-/

This breaks, because the dash in "en-us" is considered a separator instead of being part of the incoming URL path thus giving a mapping

"/content/somesite/en" <-> "us//"

To fix this situation in a broader context the "-" should be replaced as the character indicating bidirectional mapping by a ":" and the code adapted to not break on dashes any more.

For backwards compatibility, the dash should still be supported as a bidirectional indicator.
