It's Klaus change - let's ask Klaus to fix this (I'm dreaming about the
switch like SOURCE_CACHE_EXPIRES:TRUE/FALSE - to control all this except
switching to source).
But in general - let's test dev23 altogether (let everybody use it for
daily browsing) - otherwise it will follow Microsoft's policy
"it compiles - let's release".
P.S.: my town will be disconnected from the inet tomorrow due to addition
of new fiber-optic channel and most probably my ISP won't be able to switch to
satellite channel - so don't wait for my answers tomorrow.
