Support Cache-Control: immutable

Open dstufft opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

There is a draft extension added by facebook called Cache-Control: immutable. If a response is served as immutable then that means it will never ever change no matter what. It seems like it would be useful to support this.

Ideally if a response has been marked immutable we can just skip any sort of Etag or freshness handling and just blindly serve the response.

It may be more justified if the corresponding feature is also implemented in httplib2/httplib2.
