Re: [w3c/ServiceWorker] Soft Update seems way to aggressive (#1250)

My initial thoughts here:

1. We used to go to http cache for these updates.  There was widespread developer confusion and the "best practice" recommended was to set headers not to use http cache on your SW script.  The spec change to revalidate (discussed at april F2F and earlier F2F meetings) was based on aligning default behavior to this best practice recommendation.

2. So far developers seem more concerned about updates not triggering enough potentially leaving a bad SW and their site broken for longer.
