[mod_python] SetHandler trick to have pretty url's

Good call on the "Deny from all" I keep the python src
in it's own directory structure away from htdocs.  I
have had issues in the past w/ "SetHandler none"
before, I remember it not working that well.

The reason that I set up the url map was so that my
python code could live in it's own directory
structure, one that makes sense from a package
perspective not necessarily a url perspective.

e.g.:

conf/
  urlmap.config  

htdocs/
  css/
  images/
  js/
  somefile.html

src/
  somecoolap/
    common/
    appspecific1/
    appspecific2/
