I agree whole-heartedly.
There are very few drawbacks to serving directly from the
filesystem (only one I can think of, which has to do with access
control to the content),
Sometimes the static content shouldn't be accessible at a permanent
URL for security reasons.
Agreed. Lighttpd has X-SendFile header that is good to use in cases
like this. nginx has similar behaviour under a different header name,
and there is an Apache module that gives X-SendFile to Apache users.
