--- Comment #4 from Tyler Romeo <[email protected]> ---
Like I mentioned on the mailing list, ApplicationCache is meant specifically
for single- or few-paged offline web applications. It will cache all pages
permanently until the cache manifest is changed.

MediaWiki is *not* few-paged and is instead focused around separating content
across individual pages. This is specifically addressed by the standard in
section 6.7.1.1 from the link in comment #0. Unfortunately, even there the
exact implications of the prefer-online caching mode are not well documented.

Also, as Brion mentioned, this would definitely not play well with
ResourceLoader, especially since it is already using two different layers of
caching (the browser cache and the LocalStorage module cache). I'm assuming the
ApplicationCache layer would have to fit in between those two layers.
