I don't really like it, but many do. You have a fair point. On the basis of Least Surprise, I'd suggest that if we implement any such thing, we should start by cloning debian's stuff rather than re-invent it. Note that a2[en|dis]mod apply both to the standard Apache modules and to bundled third-party stuff. -- Nick Kew
