I've added Dmitry and Bernd to this thread. Guys, you probably want to get
on this list if you're not already on it.

Here's the iOS part for refreshing (patches 1
<https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/191359/>, 2
<https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/192973/>, 3
<https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/192993/>, 4
<https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/196080/>). Suppose I have "Derek
Charke" and "Darya Khan railway station" in my Saved pages list. Then when
I tap the refresh button, the following requests are made automatically,
with a User-Agent header of the following form:

User-Agent: WikipediaApp/4.0.7 (iPhone OS 8.2; Phone)


Requests...these use the ArticleFetcher class, which is the same class used
for fetching articles even outside of a Saved pages refresh (i.e., garden
variety article browsing).
