mod_rewrite redirect flag should allow no status code value

[BrennanConroy]

On a RewriteRule the [R] flag allows an optional status code value but currently we require a status code value

Default to 302?

Looks like it

hmm, what about these other parts?
The status code specified need not necessarily be a redirect (3xx) status code. However, if a status code is outside the redirect range (300-399) then the substitution string is dropped entirely, and rewriting is stopped as if the L were used.

In addition to response status codes, you may also specify redirect status using their symbolic names: temp (default), permanent, or seeother.
