[Greasemonkey] GM_Import and Caching

[Gareth Andrew]

Hi Tom,

Thanks for the heads-up, if you are happy with source-hacking you can
fix this by adding

	persist.persistFlags  =
Components.interfaces.nsIWebBrowserPersist.PERSIST_FLAGS_BYPASS_CACHE;

to scriptdownloader.js line 197.  

I'm glad to see you are enjoying the new feature; one word of warning
though is that GM_Import is not yet a supported feature.  It may take
some time before this actually makes it into a released version of
greasemonkey, and the syntax could change between now and then. I only
say this because I myself have a couple of gm scripts which I would have
liked to release but can't since their dependant on GM_Import

Gareth.
