Not convinced. The current limitations on weak etags is just silly with
the exception of If-Range..
In my view it's a specification error that validators based on
Last-Modified is allowed in more places than weak etag based ones.
Well said. The meaning of any non-range conditional request message
using a weak validator is unambiguous.
So would this be a "clarify conformance criteria" fix per the charter?
Those MUST NOTs seem to make no sense AFAICT, unless there's
implementation issues I'm not aware of.
