The reason why I reported this is that it would make it *trivial* for users of
Apache reverse proxied cache setups to invalidate items in their cache.

Rather than relying on a low ttl for every document and linked pages being
purged from the cache at different times, fixing Apache to meet the
standards-mandated behaviour would give it quite an advantage: everything could
have a high ttl and only those documents which were updated would need to be
purged - and when the purge happened, it would be instant. Marvellous :)

(Writing the code to fit it in with your cms would be a doddle too)
