Ah, you're right.

It looks to me like there's no problem adding RUN_DEPENDS. I don't
think it will break the freedom of choice of apache flavour either. I
must admit, I did think that you had to choose between one of the
*_DEPENDS for each dependency, but I can't remember why I thought that.
So would this be okay?
Ciao,
Sheldon.
