Allow for gzip, caching and minify in the core

[shdus]

Wordpress should allow for gzipping and minifying all files from within the core, (including JS, CSS, HTML etc.) and caching of the HTML that is sent to the browser. It would greatly increase performance. I understand that there are plugins out there, but many of them are not compatible with each other. But if it was standardized as part of wordpress, those problems shouldn't exist anymore.

Good try, shdus. There's a lot of us who would like this to be included similarly to Drupal, Joomla, ExpressionEngine, and countless other CMSes. Maybe the best move is to initiate a framework for Wordpress Performance to be included in Wordpress, disabled by default. Good luck.
