[racket] web server: how to read the current url?

I'm not sure what a "current url" would be, given that continuations
jump around the program and storing it would be mean you might have to
store everything about the request, which could be large if there is
data with it.

current-servlet-continuation-expiration-handler receives the request
(which contains request-uri) that expired. Is that all you want?
