Description
custom_url_rewrite_inbound is not a hook, it's a function you can add to settings.php to alter incoming requests so they map to a Drupal path. This function is called before modules are loaded and the menu system is initialized and it changes $_GET['q'].
This function should change the value of $result by reference.
Parameters
$result The Drupal path based on the database. If there is no match in the database it'll be the same as $path.
$path The path to be rewritten.
$path_language An optional language code to rewrite the path into.
