On that server we were not able to SSI enable .html by doing an 
AddHandler or XBitHack due to setting on the AllowOverride, but 
were able to do the redirect. (A drawback to doing official County 
government sites, the choice of hosting server is usually based on 
local politics). But you're right, turning index.html into a server 
parsed file would have been the preferred way to go.

The AddHandler and XBitHack have nothing to do with PHP or 
anyother add-on language, it's a webserver thing.
