Description

While analyzing my logs for 404 events, i detected a lot of requests to /favicon.ico. Because I store this file in a different place, I decided to create a static route in the Site Configuration as described in the documentation (https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/reference-coreapi/10.4/en-us/ApiOverview/SiteHandling/StaticRoutes.html).

Now a problem arises from the default .htaccess settings: it stops rewrite processing when this filename is requested, and thus preventing the route to be executed:

# Stop rewrite processing, if we are in the typo3/ directory or any other known directory
# NOTE: Add your additional local storages here
RewriteRule ^(?:typo3/|fileadmin/|typo3conf/|typo3temp/|uploads/|favicon\.ico) - [L]

I'd like to suggest the removal of the /favicon.ico from this line:

RewriteRule ^(?:typo3/|fileadmin/|typo3conf/|typo3temp/|uploads/) - [L]

It seems a little odd anyway to have it in here when one reads the comment..
