It is cacheable (public, max-age=300, s-maxage=300) but for some
reason my browser (FF 6.0.1) isn't caching it. There are all sorts of
reasons CN needs to load the notice using JS, at least for anons. For
logged-in users, I guess it might be possible to move the logic
server-side, but that would be kind of stupid if you can't also do
that for logged-out users. A height reservation would probably be
best.
If you could do that so that it worked for people with unexpectedly large
type sizes set in their browser (ie: and didn't spill out of your box overtop
of the rest of the page) that would be great.
I'm not sure it's possible, though; is it?
