Marking unassigned. If someone wants to take this on, please feel free. I'm not quite sure that this actually makes good practical sense for production sites at this point in time due to the fact that most gadget authors have no control over their cache control headers anyway. More thought required.

> The original gadget server at google.com would only retrieve gadget.xml files once every hour. This makes is hard for app authors to control the deployment of their applications.
> Shindig should obey standard HTTP caching headers. This will allow app developers to control how frequently their XML files are refreshed. For efficiency, there should be a configurable minimum refresh time that allows Shindig to compensate for improperly set headers.
