Then I'd get a grave bug filed for "data loss" when people edit the
files under /var/www/bandwidthd/ and their changes gets overwritten when
the graphs are regenerated..... not an option...
Many packages put web files under /usr/share/... but since my files
aren't read-only I need to keep them under /var rather then /usr.
I consider this part of the bug-report as wontfix.

I agree... the package was made in the apache (1.x) days and no "conf.d"
existed back then. The solution was to make a symlink
from /var/www/bandwidthd to /var/lib/bandwidthd/htdocs to make the
graphs visible for the outside worlds or manually editing the apache
configuration... I think this should be mentioned somewhere in the
documentation as well.
Someone will probably dislike the package making their "top secret"
bandwidth graphs public-by-default, but I think most people probably
doesn't have any problem with it.
This part is a "will fix" ("sooner if you help"). :)
