You're right, mod_rewrite is very powerful, but a simple negation of
a regex doesn't look too complicated for the PCRE engine used by
Apache. Too bad it's not a valid syntax for Apache.
But every time you add config complexity to mod_setenvif you make it
harder to use and more like mod_rewrite. So why not just use
mod_rewrite?
(By the way, you can also do negation using negative look-ahead as
part of the regex in 2.x, although that isn't particularly simple
either.)
