Nothing is cached, yes. But why not? The icons are reloaded for every 
single page I look at. This makes browsing a swiki very slow if you
use a slow connection... but even with a fast connection the browser
has to write all icons to the disc, which takes some time... especially
with those large animated gifs of the Macos-X-theme.

I think a browser normally sends something like "get if not modified since"
for all URLS it caches, and the server responds something like "304 not 
modified". (or with a normal response if the object has changed). 

I'l have a look at Sang-Hoon RHEE's changeset. This seems to implement
just this.
