      Feature Request:

      Please add better 404 pages.

      Motivation:

      The default winstone 404 page is very ugly and unhelpful. Even if you use a different app server, the 404 pages are usually not pretty.

      In addition, if you proxy via apache or nginx you cannot override the 404s because there are pages that return 404 (such as the search results page) that would be disabled.

      Suggestion:

      Include a page that says something like:

      <if security is disabled>
        The page you're looking for doesn't exist.
      <else security is enabled>
        The page you're looking for either doesn't exist or is not available to you.
        <if not logged in>
          Try logging in and see if that helps.
        </endif>
      </endif>
      
      You can try searching for the page you're looking for:
