Are there any foreseeable problems with making a general rule to rewrite all ".php" extensions to "/" to make URLs nicer for users?

I'm talking htaccess, of course... any help here?

In a .htaccess file in your document root

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

# Remove .php.
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} -f
RewriteRule ^(.+)\.php$ /$1/ [R=301,L]

# Add .php back.
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*[^/])/?$ /$1.php [QSA,L]
