Remove typo3/index.html
100%
Description
I accidentally checked an option in Firefox which allows to disable meta redirection (use the Web Developer toolbar and click Disable > Disable Meta Redirects).
So I wondered why my backend login did no longer show up, since obviously http://mysite/typo3/ did not redirect to index.php any more.
After I realized the problem, I could simply delete typo3/index.htm and typo3/index.html and the login page immediately came back. This is because my DirectoryIndex in Apache is set to "index.htm index.html index.php", so if the 2st two files are not available, it will always send the index.php document right away.
So I propose to remove those files, which seem to be of little need. Precondition is that I assume everyone has index.php in their DirectoryIndex, which is the case by default in Apache on Debian at least, but I also think it applies pretty much to everyone...
Also not that meta refresh has been deprectated by the W3C anyway, so it's going to be removed sooner or later... http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG10-HTML-TECHS/#meta-element
