> 2. .htaccess control - Is this required?

        I'd tend to say no--anything you'd want to do in an .htaccess file
can be done in the template fragment you need to create anyway. 
However, the fragment I posted for Gallery does allow for a limited
application of an .htaccess file.  The main reason for this is to
keep the setup pages from complaining that it didn't work.

> 3. Directory ownership - Who should be the owner of this directory?
> www  or root:shared? Why?

        The question also applies to files contained in the directory.  I'm
really not sure.  I'm still inclined to say www:www, but Darrell has
pointed out that this would allow a malicious PHP script (or,
presumably, a malicious CGI) to overwrite any files with that
ownership.  Maybe if the files aren't owner-writable?

> 4. Access right? - chmod ? 755 should be ok?

        For the directory; and for the files 644 (though wrt the above,
maybe 444 would be better).
