Description

As mentioned in Marc Nottingham in his Caching Tutoral, HTTP 1.1 introduced the Cache-Control
header to address the problem with Expires

http://www.mnot.net/cache_docs/#CACHE-CONTROL

Also, Apache's mod_expire sets up a corresponding Cache-Control: header when an Expire header is sent via mod_expire.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_expires.html

It would be nice if lighttpd also did the same thing. I realise that today it's possible to setup a
site wide Cache-Control via the setenv module but it would be easier if lighttpd mod_expires did the right thing
