Sorry, talking about security means always talking about the underlying system. I agree with you, that the apache documentation is not the right place to teach people using their system. But if we are talking about securing the apache, we schould not only mention the minimum rights. Imho we should also offer some help, to keep this settings. And umask is a big help. We may add a sentence like 'For further information read the corresponding man pages', or something else. I've often realized, that the problem isn't really reading the documentation at a special topic, but more knowing, there is something, which will help. Give the people a hint.
