Title:
  Debugging exhibits is painful because of caching

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Banners that work in the
  <https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/exhibits/> preview don't always
  work in USC, so they need testing in USC itself.

  Apparently, the banner HTML and images at
  https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/exhibits/ are cached for five
  minutes. This makes testing any fixes very annoying.

  It would be nice to have a no-cache flag or environment variable,
  where USC would append ?nocache or similar to the URL of every
  resource it requests.
