My thought is that though this is best left to web server in the grand scheme of not making the world too ugly, seeing as people on shared hosts can't change many server settings (if any) but probably can use .htaccess, this would be giving them access to potentially useful feature which those on VPS/dedicated hosts don't need to worry about as we can play with server settings. > Oh, and keep in mind .
