So in looking at a problem with greenwave getting hit with various
web-bots I found that very few of our configured robots.txt for sites
work because we normally proxypass everything to the backend. This
causes extra work on each backend needing to either add this to their
codebase (if they are a flask containers) and could be slow for other
reasons. However this will change all robots.conf for all websites so
I don't want to look at a FBR without discussion.
