Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apache2

In configuring a system for suexec usage, it doesn't really make sense
to force system administrators to create a directory under /var/www for
each user. It makes much more logical sense to have it under /home.

This can be done by changing the configuration of suexec as Dustin
Kirkland pointed out in #ubuntu-server:

< kirkland> -                       --with-suexec-docroot=/var/www \
< kirkland> +                        --with-suexec-docroot=/home  \

This is supported by this HOWTO that suggests doing the same thing:

virtual-domains/
