Picked a random place to jump into the conversation again.

What if the client devs that want the information that they are  
currently getting from the disco#info for caps just cache based on a  
node+ver+v basis, rather than just a ver basis?  They don't lose  
anything they currently have, they do a minimal number of requests, etc.

That doesn't solve the OS problem, but that's the part I'm most  
squeamish about anyway.  If you know which OS I'm using, it makes it  
slightly easier to target network-level attacks at my box.
