I guess I'm with Bill on this. My main issue with an 'expires' header is
that it will mean many things to many people.

Then we'll just have to agree to disagree. I thought the definition Keith
provided was just about right in nailing down the semantics for the field.
I think anything tighter will prevent its use and anything looser will
be so amorphous that we won't get any traction.
