--------------------------------------
Mark Nottingham confirmed my reading of things, so I'll continue as planned (in
flight right now).

> These are Cache-Control extensions that allow an origin server to specify
> some additional behavior for stale cache entries. Stale-on-error
> configurations allow a cache to continue serving stale content for a certain
> period of time if a revalidation fails, and stale-while-revalidate similarly
> allows revalidation to occur asynchronously. Some reverse proxies such as
> Squid can be configured to understand these headers, which means that some
> origin servers are probably sending them, and that we can likewise take
> advantage of them.
