Hi,

without having looked into the reviewed package, just one further note:

Leaving your remarks on Apache untouched, I am pointing out, this is not
true for www-data. www-data is among the globally project-wide assigned
user ids that are known to exist on every Debian system.

Please refer to policy 9.2.2 [1] which points this out for user ids from
0 to 99, www-data is 33. In Debian, this user is created by base-passwd [2]
