I was thinking more of a return header from ANY request that identified a set of other URLs whose cache entries should be marked stale. So, if you POST a new entry to http://host.dom/container you might get back a return header that it updated: http://host.dom/container/3q96/by-date http://host.dom/container/3q96/by-author or (even) http://host.dom/container/3q96/* This puts the computational burden on the update method rather than retrieval, and is predicated on an assumption that reads happen far more frequently than writes.
