We always warn against mixing <Location> with filesystem. That's just
one of many gotchas that may arise from it.
I wonder if a better solution would be to be much stricter about the division?
Ideally make it a config error (switchable to a warning so as not to break too
many old configs) to overlap them?
A first-pass implementation might be for the Location directive
to issue a warning if it matches a directory in the filesystem.
