We are following the recommendations on
http://www.gwtproject.org/doc/latest/DevGuideCompilingAndDebugging.html#perfect_caching

But I am afraid that whatever the headers some browsers will cache some
files anyway so we really need a way to force a reload of the web
application when RPC calls return an exception.

Any ideas on how to implement this?
