That was only a suggestion on how you may work around your somewhat limited conditional processing capabilities wrt filters like mod_deflate, but I think it's probably the cleanest approach considering the requirements of If-Match and modifying methods (PUT, DELETE, PROPATCH etc). In that construct the tag added to the ETag by mod_deflate (or another entity transforming filter) needs to be sufficiently unique that it is not likely to be seen in the original ETag value. It's not easy to fulfill the needs of all components when doing dynamic entity transformations, especially when there is negotiation involved.. Regards Henrik
