Description
When the application has its own router, it's useful to just add a single routing rule rather than define the whole router again.
Due to WebEngine's default router not being within a PSR-4 autoloading path, it's impossible to extend the DefaultRouter, and applications always have to extend the BaseRouter and define all routes again themselves.

Research direction
Start by locating DefaultRouter, BaseRouter, and the WebEngine PSR-4 autoload configuration. Verify that an application can extend DefaultRouter and add one routing rule without redefining the existing routes; confirm the result with the relevant router or application checks.
