[Please keep it on the list.]

No, I haven't yet been able to. I have to test it at home (for time and
logistic reasons), but my internet connection has been dead.

I sure hope it will work, as Jeroen says it does, although I cannot
understand why it would work. I also wonder if it works correctly with
Content-type, Last-modified, MultiViews, etc.

There must be other ways as well. Perhaps one can do tricks with external
RewriteMaps, or some database auth module.
