Thanks, this is the magic that eluded me earlier. I had to look up the
flags, so for any observers in the same boat, this works because:
- the '[L]' flag says "stop doing any more rewrite rules"; it triggers
only when the RewriteConds above match
- the '[F]' flag says "return 403 Forbidden"; it triggers always,
because after a RewriteRule, all RewriteConds are reset
I'm sure that is all apparent to somebody who is familiar with Apache
config, but I think that does not include most people on this project. I
dunno if it is worth a comment here or in the commit message.
