In order to allow efficient caching the server's file API should always send ETags so that clients can use If-Match and If-None-Match header to avoid unnecessary transfer of response bodies. Currently the file API only sets ETag for small non-compressed responses. So effectively this renders the file API no-cache even with https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/20979/ introducing support for If-None-Match handling.

Any hints for implementing this are appreciated, looking forward to fix this.
