Apache auth is not all that difficult, no.  Setting up access control  
using Location blocks and authenticating against the Django user  
database is a bit of an undertaking, however.

It'd be nice to see the ticket Chris posted get accepted into trunk.   
It's still not quite as simple as Robert was initially looking for,  
but it's a big step in the right direction.
