Servers are better off without a separate partition for /home. Unlike desktop installs which contain pretty much all of the user data under /home in a server install there isn't very much "user" data at all and most of the actual data is contained under /var somewhere.
I tend to install my virtual host websites under /home/someuser/public_html where there's a someuser for each vhost. the default /var/www website is generally completely stubbed off and not even used.
