Don't 99% of people just change the default language/charset? And isn't the effort required to understand those directives and find the right file extension about the same as the effort required to map your own extension? If people really use those things, then I'm fine with leaving them. But I suspect that they are just pointless httpd.conf bulk. Joshua.
