Hi folks, and sorry for the cross-posting.

I've been looking at the source for midgard-apache1 and midgard-core. I'm 
trying to understand how requests are being looked up, handled, etc.

My initial idea was to have a simple way to generate custom (read: styled) 
error documents for my midcom sites. What I've seen is that:
* midgard always accepts a request within a midgard-enabled vhost
* midgard lets the application generate it's own errors.

Probably the issue is more complicated than what I think, but shouldn't 
midgard check all the way to the existence and readability of a page 
(article) before accepting/declining the request? If the logic was such, we 
would be able to
* pass the request back to other apache modules for further processing (would
  mod_alias ErrorDocument be able to pass a request back to midgard?)
* generate proper apache error logs


Is it possible at all to generate custom error messages? I could probably hack 
into application.php to generate "styled" error pages but this doesn't seem 
like the proper approach.

What do you think is the proper way of solving this dilemma? I haven't found 
much on the mailing list archives... yet I'm pretty sure this question has 
come up before.


Thanks,

Nico Halpern
