I agree.

I was curious about this and followed the thread because I make use of the 
etags feature in the DefaultServlet. It seems to operate properly so far as it 
goes, but that may be due to simply expecting and handling the fact that the 
quotes are gone, or by not properly handling weak vs.strong comparison.

But if something behind the server were looking at the header value, it would 
be getting a corrupted value out to compare with its own copy of the tag if it 
had produced it.
