Comment:

 It seems that WordPress only supports
 HTTP_IF_NONE_MATCH/HTTP_IF_MODIFIED_SINCE for Feeds, Since Plugin and
 Dynamic content may have changed since the last view, But WordPress would
 have no knowledge of such content.

 Supporting if-modified-since for posts seems to be something which would
 have to be left to a themes custom code, or a plugin, Since having it in
 core would cause problems for the cases i mentioned above.
