No, spells put things there, but the default DocumentRoot we use is still
/usr/share/apache2/htdocs/ last I knew.

This is one of those places I really prefer the fact we don't do some
weird-ass layout like other distros use.  We stick as close to a default
upstream install as we can (without using /usr/local).  A major pet peeve
of mine is having to track down the apache install paths on whatever random
distro I may be needing to deal with.

So my .02 is: whatever keeps us close to what we've been doing.
