I use multiple component roots. My first component root coincides  
with the tree of files the web server sees and is serving. The second  
one is outside that tree; that's where I keep my autohandlers and  
dhandlers and any "internal" components that I call from others,  
which don't map directly to web pages. If you do that, anyone web  
browsing won't have access to the second component root and your  
config files or whatnot will be safe.
