Possible simple solution for publicweb problem

Hi all, To recap, I brought up the idea of having a publicweb role which would be for installed files that are like phpDocumentor's web server - they require installation into a subdirectory of document root. This might be completely unnecessary - what if the existing data directory were a subdirectory of document root? This would only require a change to the installer, and documentation changes. No need for a new role. The installer would simply add documentation that the data directory should be a subdirectory of a document root, if possible, and the web installer could suggest a location by autodetecting from whence it was run. Is there any data that should never be exposed to web scrutiny that would make this a bad idea? If not, it would both solve the problem and work for existing packages without modification. Of course, existing installations would have to be moved, which might be a real problem. Regards, Greg
