Comment:

 After 5 years, I propose we tackle this. Currently it's not in line with
 the RFC (http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html).

 I have observed Google to often check with a newer Last-Modified date, and
 Django replying with "Oh, sure it got modified, but long time before what
 you ask, here's the resource anyways: 200 OK"
