I think I follow what you're talking about - like for
hooks/TestHooks/authz.pm the PerlAuthzHandler is automatically added to
httpd.conf even though it's not in the final config in __DATA__?

personally, I always found this (single) bit of automagic very, very
confusing.  so +1 to remove that bit and just require that __DATA__ be the
config that you want.

is there more that <NoAutoConfig> suppresses?
