How would this work? Do websites with rss feeds normally publish the url to that feed in some standard place? Are there any third party extensions that do it?
Also, some (most?) RSS readers don't need the path to the feed directly. You give them the regular URL and they'll figure it out. TinyTinyRSS does it.
