when it happens in vhost context, rewrite happens in an early phase of
apache processing.
when it happens in per-dir context, it happens in a late phase and
causes the request to be restarted after the substituion.

so there are lots of opportunities for them to work differently.
99%of the time the per-vhost one is more intuitive / easier to deal
with.
