[Bug 60377] New: RewriteRule documentation: assumes per-directory rules are defined in htaccess files

https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=60377

            Bug ID: 60377
           Summary: RewriteRule documentation: assumes per-directory rules
                    are defined in htaccess files
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.5-HEAD
          Hardware: PC
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: Documentation
          Assignee: docs@httpd.apache.org
          Reporter: chealer@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

The phrasing of
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/en/mod/mod_rewrite.html#rewriterule
sometimes assumes per-directory rules are defined in an htaccess file, for
example in "The directory path where the rule is defined is stripped from the
currently mapped filesystem path before comparison (up to and including a
trailing slash)."
"The directory path where the rule is defined" could be substituted with "The
directory-path of the directory to which the rule is associated".

By the way:
*The Syntax defines "directory-path" (with a dash) rather than "directory
path".
*In the first sentence, "perl compatible regular expression" could be replaced
with "regex", defined in
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/en/mod/directive-dict.html#Syntax
