Go for it :-) Can't be any worse that the current broken behavior :-)

Hi!
Now that I am again working around in MyFacesResourceLoader I've had a
look at its lastModified stuff.
You know, we create a properties file with a date generated during the
build process to determine the last modified time we have to send to the
browser.
There the method states:
* Unfortunately this is not possible with files inside jars.
Instead, the
* MyFaces build process ensures that there is a file
AddResource.properties
* which has the datestamp of the time the build process was run.
This method

Which is wrong IMHO. At least the URLConnection has a method called
getLastModified() :-)
So we can extend this class to use the real lastModified date and even
further, we can check the date we get from the browser and send back a
correct http status code in case the resource has not changed.
Any objections?
Ciao,
Mario
