What Joel said :-)

(I started gwt-mobile-webkit)

However, I am far from done: The AppCache behaviour is rather 'undefined' when 
an iframe is involved which is dynamically inserted by Javascript. According to 
a thread on WHATWG 
(http://lists.whatwg.org/pipermail/whatwg-whatwg.org/2009-July/021313.html) it 
seems 'undesired' to use dynamic iframes in conjunction with HTML5's AppCache.

The solution seems to just include *all* permutations with their resources to 
the AppCache manifest, which results in a lot of network overhead - not good 
for mobile.

Another is to introduce a *redirect* GWT linker, which redirects the user to 
the right permutation page (where an actual permutation-specific appcache is 
defined) instead of embedding n iframe. I haven't succeeded yet in getting a 
usable implementation, unfortunately :-(

While I'm at it: Any help is greatly appreciated, of course :-P
