Per a dialog with a reporter and Ben Laurie, I did a search on where
we had enabled Multiviews, and I'd propose we disable this by default
as the server would default it as well. These places were;

Amazingly it doesn't show up in extra/httpd-manual.conf because we
don't even rely on the feature (those are type-maps).
Neither /~user/ or /icons/ by default requires the multiviews feature.
So please indicate which way we want to go here...
[ ] +1 remove these MultiViews from trunk/2.2/2.0
[ ] -1 leave these with MultiViews by default
