Me, too ;-)

A "serverwide" example is in the stock apache httpd.conf for the icons
directory, which is shared and used for automatic directory indexing, if
you have that enabled. Anyway, in my configs it looks like this:

Alias /icons/ "/var/www/icons/"

<Directory "/var/www/icons">
    Options Indexes MultiViews
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

So, for any and every virtual host I have I can pull up
http://www.mydomain.com/icons/pie2.png and it works.
