In other words, is the host from which the request comes, authorised to make this request? Hence mod_authz_host.

I tend to agree that the new name is confusing. It is theoretically possible to have host authz integrated into our system ("Require host .apache.org", for example), but it isn't designed that way. But the new name seems to suggest that it is part of the same system.

Perhaps the real issue is that Satisfy/Allow/Deny is the confusing part,
and these should all be rolled into Require ?
