Responce URI Masking/Hiding

We would like to consult on the possibility of performing a URL rewrite with the use of an iRule for domain.com. it’s not a good practice for our homepage to show as http://www.domain.com/home/default...

If you use this version it will only rewrite the requested URI if the URI is / and the host is www.example.com. It should not have any effect on images or any other non-/ request. 

 
  when HTTP_REQUEST {  
  
      Check if requested URI is / and requested host is www.example.com 
     if {[HTTP::uri] eq "/" and [string tolower [HTTP::host]] eq "www.example.com"  
  
         Rewrite URI to /home/default.htm  
        HTTP::uri "/home/default.htm"  
     }  
  }
