17781	"Django cache middleware does not set ""Age"" header as described in rfc2616"	corentin.chary@…	nobody	"Django cache middleware set ""Cache-Control: max-age="" and ""Expires"", but does not set ""Age"".
This can be an issue, because ""max-age"" in frozen, so you can only rely on ""Expires"" for expiration time. Having the ""Age"" header set would allow the client to now when this page was cached by django.

This feature would require adding a cache.age(key) function in all cache backends, which is far from trival, especially with backends such as memcached."	Bug	closed	Core (Cache system)	dev	Normal	wontfix			Design decision needed	0	0	0	0	0	0
