To be clear, my comment above was only tongue-in-cheek. I know people
actually use mod_rewrite and didn't mean it seriously. nd's done a great job
of channeling the spirit of RSE to get mod_rewrite usable again.
However, there may be definitely real modules that we should consider retiring
to an 'extra' distribution.

Ideally, we should target those modules that have equivalent functionality
offered elsewhere. One pre-req for separating out MPMs is that we need to
make them DSO-able... *shrug* -- justin
