They do sort of imply that it might be generic, which was why I was
asking, but...

...here [1], which is linked from that LocationMatch section, they also
sort of imply you have to use the new apparently standardized "ap_expr
expression parser".  So who the hell knows.

The OP said he was trying the match group and it wasn't working, so
unless he's making a mistake and/or pending confirmation of the httpd
version, sounds like it maybe doesn't currently work.

So maybe an RFE is in order?  Don't imagine is a super huge priority,
but would be a neat feature.  I was thinking would be nice for example
for user-specific spaces, like "/users/<username>", without having to
statically declare all the authZ rules, for each user.
