This would help people running incorrectly configured apache with virtual
hosts. There is a well known problem where misconfiguration makes apache
fail to lookup directory (apache looks for *file* /something on virtual
host and ends up trying *directory* /something/ on default site. Something
like

I'm not saying that it's actually worth it, just saying it could help a
few people. Actually I don't think it would be a good idea, the double
slashes generated here and there in URLs would probably confuse more
people than it would help a few misconfigured Apache.
