I feel the httpd-ssl.conf is a decent solution.. The very reason being many users may not want to have SSL enabled on their webservers (or they'll mostly enable it as a .so module) - in which case, it's a pain to comment / uncomment out all the SSL directives.. Also, it enables them to have different httpd-ssl* files for different purposes..

The SSL config has historically been huge. If the proxy config ever has an example of every config directive, and a paragraph for each, then I would suggest splitting it out into it's own config file. The reality is that most people just use the default config, and modify it to fit their needs. If we put the SSL config in there, we are just making it harder for them to do that.
