Unless somebody has learned something concrete from experience with this system to indicate that this change is called for... probably should be backed out. I can imagine cases where this change would be difficult to deal with. For example a static HTML page could not be incorporated into more than one appcache. If you have a system that provides an appcache per user (say by virtue of dynamically generated top level pages containing manifest attributes), your only option would be to dynamically generate all HTML resources within that cache to contain the appropiate manifest attribute.
