Update notification

I have recently been ranting elsewhere about how banks could identify if a
bank account balance had changed since a previous access to avoid lengthy
authentication procedures to no sensible avail.

It occurs to me that the NetSurf download site could do something similar:
Leave a cookie with the last development version noted, and then only offer
a subsequent version, otherwise terminating the potential download, perhaps
with an appropriate message!

OK - makes my software potentially redundant - but so much more
user-friendly!

Just an idea, not thought through though (bedtime soon!).
