Yeah but resource owners can change the app via .htaccess so that
wouldn't accomplish what the OP intented, IMO.

The only thing I can imagine the SP could do is implement something
like httpd's AllowOverride, so that one could centrally limit what
shib-specific stuff could be added to .htaccess
But, again, not that I can see/understand this being necessary.
