httpd lens Apache parsing error with unclosed tags about augeas HOT 4 OPEN

So what you have there is a Include vhosts/*.conf stanza, and then in those files you have a bunch of VirtualHosts, some of which have bunch of Vhost defintions, and taken together, to Apache httpd this looks somewhat like this

#v1
<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName v1
</VirtualHost>

<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
<VirtualHost *:443>
  ServerName v1
</VirtualHost>
# nothing to see here!

#v2 
<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName v2
</VirtualHost>
<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
<VirtualHost *:443>
  ServerName v1
</VirtualHost>
</IfModule>

So the only reason why apachectl doesn't complain, is because it sees the full picture.
my opinion is that it should complain.
