Yes, I would SetEnvIf the variable if the request Host is
"test.<domain>", so that "index.php" always stays the same, but I use
different (sub)domains:

SetEnvIf Host test\.* FLOW3_CONTEXT=Development

This way I could have a different VirtualHost for this domain with
different requirements (e.g. allowing only access to it only from
certain IPs, etc).

But as you put it in your other post, "no more magic", everyone has to
find its own magic to set the environment. Some ideas on how to do this
in the documentation would be nice, of course.

Cheers,
Ernesto
