Leonid asks for names for .cfg entries.

d) HONOR_NO_CACHE=yes/no

e) NO_EXPIRATION_BEFORE=seconds1
   ASKNO_FOR_EXPIRATION_BEFORE=seconds2
   ASKYES_FOR_EXPIRATION_BEFORE=seconds3

   gives 4 intervals for age of expired documents:

        0..seconds1        -    silently ignore expiration
        seconds1..seconds2 -    ask user about reload with default=no
        seconds2..seconds3 -    ask user about reload with default=yes
        seconds3..Inf      -    silently reload

f) "Connection failed (reason); use previous version ([yes]/no): "
