Interesting one. There is nothing that holds the return code by
default, as that would mean completing the request in the rewrite
phase, which wouldn't make much sense.
What you can do is do an 'is an existing URL check, via a subrequest'
with the -U flag. Something like this:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} On
RewriteCond ! -U %{REQUEST_URI}
RewriteRule (.*) http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
However, I would never do this. This would make every single SSL
request make an additional request to see if the URL exists, which
would be very expensive.
If you were only interested in static files, than that is easier, you
can use the -f (file test), which would not use a sub request.
However, if it were just static files, you would probably just serve
them..
