In my opinion, this feature makes sense if it can be activated by the
'location' ...

It requires explicit preparation by the site operator so it should
only activated on demand, per-directory

It makes sense to me in this context

If someone explicitly requests the .gz version, they get it, regardless
of this setting

If someone requests the non-gz version, their browser should only
get the gz if it agrees to transparently handle the compression

And the gz swap only gets activated if the site operator tells
httpd this is the desired behavior for a particular directory tree through
the location keyword...
