With the default installation (fancy URLS off) pages have URLs like this:
SITE/index.php?id=page-slug
In most cases (index.php being a default document, no other index.html, etc. present) you can also open them with this shorter URL:
SITE/?id=page-slug
Not as good as fancy URLs, but a bit prettier for those without mod_rewrite (or not wanting to use it).
It isn't difficult to patch GS to do it this way, by editing function find_url(), but it would be fine to have it as an option (be it in GSCONFIG, or in a checkbox).

Edit: since GS 2.03 you can do this with custom permalink structure ?id=%slug%
