+## [Unreleased]
+### Added
+- The `check_for_trailing_slash` behavior can now be used on `JsonEndpoint`s
+
+### Changed
+- Service domains and endpoint paths were previously joined per [IETF RCF 1808](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1808.html),
+  which has surprising edge cases.
+  These are now always joined by appending the endpoint path;
+  the previous behavior can be achieved with multiple services or endpoints as needed.
+
 ## [1.1.0] - 2018-12-03
 ### Added
 - Exposed ability to explicitly set the response encoding

Non-intuitive behavior with non-root endpoints
**Describe the bug**
Non-root endpoints - e.g., example.com/rest - behave non-intuitively when paired with their endpoints.

**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Define: domain = 'https://example.com/server'
1. Add some endpoints: test = JsonEndpoint('/test')
1. Call endpoint: client queries url https://example.com/test

**Expected behavior**
The intuitive behavior is joining the full domain with the endpoint. That is, 'https://example.com/server/test'

**What actually happened**
The culprit is urllib.parse.urljoin. It is quite fastidious about joining urls. The 'workaround' is that you must define the domain with a trailing slash and the endpoint missing its leading slash.

**Additional context**
There are other combos that create non-intuitive joins. On the one hand, urllib.parse.urljoin is most certainly correct in how it goes about joining. On the other hand, as many rest endpoints are not placed on the root of the server, I do believe some clarification is needed. Domain and endpoint definition probably shouldn't require understanding urljoin specifics. There are no doubt a few choices here. Easiest is likely more documentation, which I can help add if that's the route you choose. I believe forcing domains to trailing slashes and removing leading slashes from endpoints would work, but I'm not sure about full consequences.

Anyways, thanks for great library!
