Which is also an advantage if a user visits a single application more than once.

Even if we release more often users are likely to visit a given site more often 
than we make releases. If we released monthly and a user visited a site every 
day that's 29 times that user didn't need to download the RSLs (assuming they 
stayed in the browser cache for that long).

Other than a cross domain policy what else would this require? I lot of JS 
libraries do the same thing so it may be worth investigating. eg google hosted 
libraries at https://developers.google.com/speed/libraries/

Thanks,
Justin
