No, nothing special per se, but a lot of distros use this directory  
for serving www. IMO, it makes it clearer to the administrator that

Every server I have every used or set up, save for one, serves web out  
of that directory - including Horde's various sites. Not that this  
makes it definitive, just sayin'...
