+- [feature]: Track if P3P-headers should be sent via cookie. Reason: We can't assume that only bodies that contain <iframe>-elements needs the P3P header (or so I think right now).

+- [feature]: Add option to send 304 headers but delete "Set-Cookie"-header - not allowed by spec, but seems to work in most browsers/servers anyway.
