We don't. We just look at the leading slash. I have merely documented 
what is the current behaviour since 2.0.

The quotes are eaten by ap_getword_conf in AP_INIT_TAKE2. One would 
have to use AP_INIT_RAW_ARGS to see them. But IMO the current behavior 
is ok, no need to change it.

Actually that shouldn't be supported.  If it was an undocumented feature
it aught to stay undocumented.  How do we know this isn't a typo of
URI /Forbidden! ?

Trip on the way-back machine to early 1.3, the leading quote was required
(and trailing quote wasn't allowed, weird).  I had intended that they
would have leading and trailing quotes when I patched that oddity.

No, this example is intendended to demonstrate that the double quotes 
are not significant. But a line break was missing.

I don't think that change was intended, right?  Looks like an error test.
