Bug Description
The branch below contains a new AccessHandler module intended for a more patron-friendly (OPAC auth instead of basic auth) protection for content and Apache features.
I have included documentation on use of the module, including a quick "how to use it to protect an Apache proxy" example, in both "Release Notes" form and in TechRef. The two copies should currently be identical other than heading levels. I would not object to the Release Notes version being reduced (perhaps pulling the example proxy config out entirely?).

This looks good, though I haven't tested it.
My only comment at this point is that there is a pre-existing pattern to use space-separated lists, instead of comma-separated, in O::W::Proxy and ::Proxy::Authen. I think it would be preferable to follow that pattern to reduce admin confusion.
Thanks, Thomas.
