Why not? I really think this is getting crazy, securitywise.

  * An admin would have to screw up .php configuration badly.

  * An admin would have to screw it up badly for a *length* of time.

  * The liklihood of an admin screwing up .php for a *length* of
    time is about as equal to them screwing up the DocRoot of
    a virtualhost (thus, exposing a protected settings.php).

This stuff just doesn't happen in principle, and the downsides of making 
it secure for a "just in case" is, IMO, not worth the effort.
