--- Comment #6 from Nick Kew <nick@webthing.com> 2009-10-02 08:17:33 PDT ---
Agree with Dan - hence my "poor example" comment: even just replacing "except
in" with "unless" would be an improvement, but that still leaves issues like
testing for "word"s when in fact it tests strings.  Better to drop it, except
that loses an example that could, despite all the faults, be helpful to users.

Let's not forget we can improve it for 2.3 and up, where this kind of ugly
mod_rewrite hackery is obsoleted:
<If ("%{QUERY_STRING} = /hack/) && !(%{HTTP_COOKIE} = /go/)">
    Deny from All
</If>
