Nice to see us return to previous behaviour here.

Can the webkit image not cache the tiles it downloads? If it could,
surely this is identical to how, say, Firefox or IE would cache
images, and if so, it should keep us within the terms of Yahoo's
conditions of use.

As an aside, has anybody managed to build the webkit image on MacOS?
I've come unstuck on one of the qt libraries, even though QT is
installed.
