Is it possible to append to the value of a configuration directive, e.g. in .htaccess?
For example, what I would like to do is add some paths to the value of the include_path directive without replacing what is already there, or hardcoding what is there right now in my .htaccess. I am on a shared hosting setup and I want to preserve the value of include_path that has been configured by the administrator of the hosting company, which contains paths to things like Pear, etc., but add my own paths.
Seems like a serious oversight to me if you can't do this, but I haven't been able to figure out how. I did find out that there is a predefined constant, DEFAULT_INCLUDE_PATH, that contains the same value that include_path has initially.
Any ideas?
