Describe the solution you'd like

The ability to specify (in the config file) a UserDir-like directive, so that a directory such as public_html in each user's home directory could be served. Essentially, duplicate this functionality from Apache.

This isn't as common a use case as it once was, but for (for instance) a computer science department webserver, I'd love to be able to move away from Apache and to a Rust-based solution.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Stick with Apache

I believe having a UserDir-like SWS feature will be useful to entities like computer science departments and similar.
