Do you know Debian?. Debian style isn't "just work". Debian is "just don't 
touch". If you put a dedicated user for apache in arch, you have a better 
package, (in my opinion more secure, nobody have another uses), and if you 
want, you can edit PKGBUILD or httpd.conf for use your settings.

I don't understand the problem. A distro by default need a good packages. Use 
a good config for default is a good thing. why do i use a distro package and 
not custom package?, because the package have good quality, and a dedicated 
user for apache is a good thing without need of destroy KISS philosophy of 
arch.
