Not at this point.  While two viewers will certainly fetch the
same object, they'll do it with different URLs.  Currently,
our URLs are neither Resources nor Locators really and attempting
to cache at the HTTP-level is problematic.  That may change in the
future but right now, that's what we have.  So the immediate *proxy*
work is to get HTTP & SOCKS5 proxying working correctly and
uniformly in the viewer.

As far as asset caching goes....  the cache maximum has been bumped
up recently.  Give it a try people and please report back any problems.
