******* Snip ******

That is not true. You can put authentication directives in both
<Directory> and <Location> contexts. From the apache documentation at
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/directive-dict.html#Context

"directory
        A directive marked as being valid in this context may be used
        inside <Directory>, <Location>, and <Files> containers in the
        server configuration files, subject to the restrictions outlined
        in How Directory, Location and Files sections work."
