I agree with Simo and Jan here. While we could easily take the "do it yourself" road, I always preferred the "sane defaults" side of Arch, myself. That is - install some crap and it works out-of-the-box in a pretty decent manner. It's a very small stretch from "sane defaults" to "secure defaults". Unless you think sane != secure.
so this is the official announcment that the vanilla-style-do-it-yourself for professional engineers and manual readers is no more, and that in future there will be rather debian-style-out-of-the-box solutions for those who want it to "just work" ?
Do you know Debian?. Debian style isn't "just work". Debian is "just don't touch". If you put a dedicated user for apache in arch, you have a better package, (in my opinion more secure, nobody have another uses), and if you want, you can edit PKGBUILD or httpd.conf for use your settings. I don't understand the problem. A distro by default need a good packages. Use a good config for default is a good thing. why do i use a distro package and not custom package?, because the package have good quality, and a dedicated user for apache is a good thing without need of destroy KISS philosophy of arch.
