Correction: There actually are cached, I forgot to look into the disk
cache.

Anyway: I have run a test with Wireshark, because I had the feeling that
the number of requests wasn't lower. And indeed: Firefox still issues
the requests, now with If-Modified-Since and If-None-Match headers, and
it receives 304. Bottom line: The number of data transferred is indeed
lower, the number of requests is not reduced -- at least for me.
