Comment:

 I've updated this ticket's title/description to better match the direction
 it has taken (since comment:2), namely to improve Etag-based cache busting
 for scripts and styles.

 Since we're now early in the 6.6 cycle, let's move this into the
 milestone. I believe the following next steps are need to move forward:
 - Refresh/rebase off `trunk` 🙏.
 - Smoke test refreshed PR.

 Then, separately:
 - Address unbroken cache issues when working from `src` in a separate
 ticket (comment:15 and comment:16).
 - Consider opening a new performance-focused ticket for using `crc32()` vs
 `md5()` (comment:17).
