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.
