Using a ? after names is bad for proxies.

[overshard]

Many proxies such as Squid don't cache items that have a ? after their name. Could we get an option to put the version numbers straight into the name of items to avoid proxy issues?

ex.
base.min.css?43238471 will not be cached by squid 2.7.
base.43238471.min.css will be cached.

I agree that base.min.css?43238471 looks better and should be used in the future but for now we need an option to do inline versioning.

Thanks!

Hi @overshard!

Consider using https://github.com/rstacruz/sinatra-assetpack instead, it uses filename.378428.css as a cache-busting method.

Nice, I'll give it a shot, thanks.
