Hi - no - it is designed to watch for changes in content , for example, when a paragraph in the page changes and you just want that changed paragraph in your notification
accessing etag headers still needs to take into account anti-robot blockers, which pretty much require chrome, and so in chrome you cant just request the headers more or less, or maybe you can? unsure if puppeteer/playwright will let us do that
but for sure this belongs to a bigger thing where we want to include the Headers of the reply as part of the change detection (maybe a new plugin?)
Does changedetection.io watch for changes in HTTP response headers, such as the ETag, Last-Modified, or Content-Length headers?
These headers should not change unless a page's content has changed, so it should be possible to detect changes on a page using these headers without downloading the page's content again.
