If we are to do something that disruptive, I think I would like to see
gitweb folded into the main git package, and the decision about
whether to use it in apache.conf to be a debconf question (defaulting
to true in the usual "more usable by default" vein).  But I am not
sure the current webapps policy provides an easy way to do that.
