Hey folk,

I’m just working on some caching for a non-Koha project, and I was just thinking… maybe we could use the ETag and If-Match HTTP headers to detect whether or not we’ve got a mid-air collision when editing bib records.

It’s not something I’d be looking to work on, but I figure it’s an interesting idea.

Alternatively, one could implement their own app-based hash mechanism to do the same thing.
