Noooooooooooooooooooo! What would you do if you wanted multiple users to
have the ability to publish to the webserver? Would you make ~user1/www
and ~user2/www a symbolic link to htdocs directory? They'd be overwriting
each other files in a jiffy.

Why not just change the permissions on the htdocs directory? (Thought that
is *still* the wrong answer).
