The comment at the bottom of Jie Li's blog post found here http://blogs.msdn.com/b/opal/archive/2010/04/23/sharepoint-2010-search-engine-optimization-seo-tips.aspx states

"URL Rewriting is still not supported - however url redirect is supported. We are using url redirect feature in url rewrite model."

Hope this helps

I believe that you can do this using the iis rewriting tool, where you can write a regex and route according to matches. I also believe this is not supported in SP 2010. I also think you need kerberos to do this - atleast I needed it when I did something similar.
