Of course it can - it's part of the denial-handler. You can write your own 
that does - depending on environ-state - does redirects or returns an status 
code.

Just make your custom denial handler either perform a normal redirect (that's 
what it usually does, so take a look at the default implementation), or 
perform an "internal redirect" to a location that renders the 401.
