Shane Curcuru commented on WHIMSY-269:
--------------------------------------

Can't we just point ErrorDocument to be index.cgi, and have it grab the Status 
header like:
[https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/custom-error.html#variables]

Then we could use the whimsy/asf/themes and wunderbar to do any additional 
custom formatting easily as well.

> When auth is not granted, show more info

> Unfortunately the authentication realm is not always shown by browsers (I 
> think only Firefox shows it).
> It would be useful if more info could be given when auth fails, e.g. show the 
> persons auth status and ideally list the auth required for the page
