mod_rewrite does not try index.html like it used to

           Summary: mod_rewrite does not try index.html like it used to
           Product: Apache httpd-2.0
           Version: 2.0.35
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: mod_rewrite
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: jon+apache-bugzilla@unequivocal.co.uk


My DOCUMENT_ROOT/.htaccess file looks like this:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/wt/$1.py -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /wt/$1.py

Under Apache 1.3, when you try the URL http://www.example.com/ then mod_rewrite 
will try running "index.html" through the rewrite rules. Under Apache 2.0, it 
does not, it just tries "". How do I get the old behaviour?
