i don't like having to do
location \.php {
stuff
}
location /foo {
auth basic stuff
... and i have to do the php stuff again
}
i guess there's no real way around it, really. it's just a gripe i
have, i suppose. perhaps some way of inheriting all locations globally
first and then doing second level, then third level, etc...
