I don't think it's too much to ask that your content guys be forced to 
keep everything under a /static directory.  This keeps your Apache 
config very simple.

The DECLINED method is interesting, I'll take a look at how this can be 
done with the Static::Simple module.  As others have mentioned though, 
you'll take a performance hit with this method as you're still going 
into Cat to handle the files.
