Comment (by grahamd):

 Relevant to this is a recent discussion on mod_wsgi mailing list. See:

 http://groups.google.com/group/modwsgi/browse_frm/thread/42e2d356d4eac415

 This actually talks about authorization as distinct from authentication.

 The original mod_python handler actually mixed the two when it shouldn't
 have.

 In mod_wsgi one can properly separate the two and better integrate with
 Apache authentication mechanism and location based requirements on group
 membership.
