Consider this sequence of operations:

(1) User A does a "uv push"
(2) User B does a "wget -N" against the uv.
(3) User C does a "uv push" of different content.

If all of (1), (2), and (3) happen during the same second and if
unversioned content honors the If-Modified-Since header, then
subsequent attempts by user B to do "wget -N" will continue to
retrieve the obsolete version of the unversioned content that was
uploaded by user A.  User B will never see the more recent content
uploaded by user C.
