Sure. A handler which does its own apr_file_open looses the ability to use sendfile.
Who cares?
Only people who value performance.
That's an APR implementation-dependent detail that you (the module/app author) has minimal control over.
APR has nothing to do with how it works on Unix, other than being used as a parameter passing mechanism between the default_handler and the core_input_filter. Sure, APR comes into play on Win95, but I don't think there are a whole lot of people seriously trying to maximize Apache performance on Win95.
