Yes :) My main wish for .htaccess was that if you keep templates in fileadmin/templates, you can easily adjust .htaccess for client caching through File module. But you do not have to give access to this particular folder to ordinary users. I use .htaccess very much on every site and it really helps to speed up page loading.

I read somewhere that stat() operations take long time on Linux, so a couple of preg_matches should not be very noticable.

I remember proposing something like this a month ago or so.
