    Change the "Test..." to "Template..." in the URL.  What's there is
    the current source, not a checkpoint; it changes as I work on it -
    bugs and all.

    I've been thinking about this, and wonder if it might not be better
    to overload the existing UserDir directive a bit.  It accepts
    "UserDir disabled" now; how about "UserDir disabled [user [...]]"?
    It wouldn't be difficult to have them be cumulative, and presence of
    one or more userids making the "disabled" status only apply to
    those, leaving the "UserDir public_html" (or whatever) still
    functional for all other users.

    Still a future/feature, though, of course.
