There is an alternative to using uri_for in every link:

<base href="[% c.request.base %]">

...

<a href="user"></a>

This method will work whether your deployment is at the base of the 
domain, or a subdirectory.

We used this method so that we could run applications under user 
directories:

http://dev.server.com/~someuser/app1/

But then on production have them run at the base of their domain.

http://app1.domain.com/
