Wouldn't it help if all rules that match URI-wise need to allow the
person requesting the resource?
I am not sure if I understand.
The problem is, I do not know how to make a rule to allow "everything
except". E.g., allow every URI that does NOT start with
$(hostname)/admin/ . It would be possible if there was finite number of
prefixes other than $(hostname)/admin , but it might not be the case.
