Hmm interisting and very disturbing too, since most (if not all) web applications I've seen and used seem to silently require that index.php files are treated automatically like index.html files. Which seemd to be true for pre-2.2 apache versions. BTW what's with index.htm (without the l) files? They are not mentioned there too but they definitely should, don't they? Anyway, maybe there is a reason upstream decided to change this behavior or maybe it's just a bug, but I still think we should somehow prepare our users to this change or better, just be backwards compatible since it does not really hurt in this case, does it?
