Because if you mess up the Apache configuration *once* Trac is
installed - thinking about adding a new project, upgrading Apache,
etc. - you'd fall back to an unexpected behaviour. When it comes to
authentication and security, I really do not like the software to
guess what's the "best way" to go.

Please add an option, at least, to always disable the fallback to the
form-based authentication.
