What I find amazing is that people think that some arbitrary blog by someone who has nothing to do with the original development of a project can serve as adequate documentation. > Graham, it would also be worth noting that this approach has some > caveats.

I have added a small additional note at end of the wiki page. But then, we know they will never read that far. :-) BTW, this is only an issue when site would keep getting requests while changes being made. That by default lazy loading is used, generally okay in development as a programmer is going to go and make all the changes they want to before hitting the browser again. This is presuming only one person working on code.
