Description Ralf Sternberg CLA 2012-03-14 12:30:35 EDT 
Caching of the startup page is ineffective since the Cache-Control headers (see bug 220733) prevent browsers from caching the page.

Since all JavaScript and theming files are now registered as resources and thus will be cached by the browser, and the startup page itself is only a few K in size, we can remove the code that deals with caching from the startup page. This simplifies the startup page logic and ensures that we can always send up-to-date information to the client.
