[rt-users] v2.0.6 Browser caching problems

I suspect you're running into the fact that mason's cache uses the modtime
on templates to decide when to update its cached copies.

Also, you may want to stick your locally modified templates in local/WebRT/html, so they persist across upgrades. files in that directory structure
are automatically used by RT rather than their counterparts in the regular
directory structure.
