I'd have to ensure that I calculate the time offset only uncached page load (or make an extra XHR request to get time) and hope the offset doesn't change too often. That's an extra complication for cached/offline/phonegap apps. It's doable in most cases, but it's not ideal.


I wonder whether we could extend Age response header to be used as a request header:
