I'm all in favor of supporting fallbacks for more limited clients. But query params are not a great idea since they can prevent caching from happening.



Add a random number to the end as a param to force no-caching.


My point was that it's not a good thing for requests for cacheable content, that might not be cached since you used a query param to access it. Some caches ignore requests with query params since "queries" are often not static.
