  Thanks for the reference!

  OK.  That helps.  That page seems to be saying that the configuration 
options are stored (reordered) and possibly only processed when a request is 
received.

  I still like my method and the other parts of my argument, but I can see 
that putting virtual host config files in conf.d is not invalid or risky.

  Give me a few.  I'll modify my page to take my new world view into 
account.

  Thanks!  At least I'm not 'just' annoying everyone...
