In general, options are problematic because while people compiling from

So if some kind of web server is a soft run-time dependency, then I
think it makes sense to just not include it as a dependency at all.

Any reason APACHE_USER/APACHE_GROUP and NGINX_USER/NGINX_GROUP must differ?
Some packages depend on apache and set 
WWW_USER=APACHE_USER/WWW_GROUP=APACHE_GROUP,
then set permissions with WWW_USER/WWW_GROUP.
