Add support for .htaccess on Webs

I have a premium account with HTML mode. I've tried uploading a ".htaccess" file to my root directory and it rejected it. I tried tricking the uploader by switching the extension to upload, then rename afterwards. It uploaded properly, then deleted the file after renaming. The account is 2.5 years old, so I tried making a new test account in HTML mode. Same exact problems. Apparently, there is no support for .htaccess on Webs which needs to change for premium users. I understand restricting PHP and Rails for separate paid premium packages, but .htaccess is a must for users.

    Webs should allow their html users to with the .htaccess file. I primarily just want to use it so i can create custom 404 pages, but I know there are many other uses that other members would appreciate being able to use.

    concordo, é claro que quem não entende de html não vai pedir isso, mas já que a webs tem essa utilidade, seria realmente necessaríssimo ter este suporte. não sei como foi para vocês, mas para mim, eu fiz este arquivo, mas ainda não entendia muito de Htaccess , então apenas coloquei o código para as paginas 404, até ai tudo ok, mas não funcionou, depois de uns 5 dias, tudo foi corrigido pelas webs e criada automaticamente a pagina notfound no meu diretório, eu personalizei ela com o template do meu site e tudo funcionou, mas o problema é que agora não posso mais fazer upload do arquivo com as novas atualizações tipo bloquear hotlinks em imagens etc...
