I like the idea that .htaccess is not touched once a site is up and
running.

I think the installation procedure could create .htaccess or modify an
existing one, if necessary (and it probably is).  This feels safer than
having the installation overwrite and existing .htaccess (think about
upgrades).

I agree that .htaccess shouldn't be included in the distribution, so
that unpacking a new version on top of an old installation wouldn't
overwrite any custom .htaccess rules.

Best regards,
+ Kimmo
