You're welcome, Joshua. :) You could try persuading a core committer to add this as a (semi-)official extension.

This question comes up often. In my experience the online documentation is almost always outdated, incomplete or outright wrong. I don't bother looking things up, I go straight to the source. It's a kind of job security, I suppose. There are only a handful of people that truly and deeply understand Apache. We can ask any hourly rate we want!
