password protect and index protect users root www directory

[cyberspirit]

Can anyone explain to me why it is not possible in the current release of cpanel to password protect or index protect the www root directory of a user?
That would be the first place to protect if a site is under construction and not ready to be released. For some reason cpanel only allows subdirectories of www.
Any statement from the cpanel crew on this?

I need that feature too. Is there any word on this that cPanel guys work on this ?
