Thanks Miguel,

I committed a few moki and testresults files, based on your fixes.

The question is: should they? I have no idea about what a browser does 
when rendering a page that contains 10 times the same image served with 
a "no-cache" directive. Does it request the image 10 times? Or is part 
of the same page rendering, and the page is requested only once?

In short, is it a bug (that we may fix later anyway, because I think 
it's minor since we already return caching messages) or is it normal?

I'll get back to you about that. I need my Internet Connection for the 
time being ;-P
