It is worth including the change in this page http://drupal.org/node/56773 to the standard .htaccess we distribute?

This has two advantages:

a) Avoid a Drupal bootstrap for every 404 of these files. b) Send a smaller number of bytes when this happen.

I believe the majority of sites would not want Drupal to handle 404 for these files.

I can make the patch if it has a chance of getting through.

yes, i would like to see this. if people really object, we could default to commented out.
