Very useful
Very useful for dev sites (or sites constantly updated). Thank you.

great for development and internal websites
I use this when I have a site in development so I'm not constantly asking clients to hold SHIFT+reload pages to see the latest. Also use it on internal sites with dynamic content where speed is less critical than content freshness. Works great!
