     <p>This is true for .htaccess too since they have the same priority as <directive>Directory</directive> in the merge order. The important concept to understand is that configuration sections like  <directive>Directory</directive> and <directive>FilesMatch</directive> are not comparable to module specific directives like <directive module="mod_headers">Header</directive> or <directive module="mod_rewrite">RewriteRule</directive> because they operate on different levels.
