Would it work?

I could see a great deal of confusion if someone (for example) uses  
wget to try and download all of freenet, and all they end up with is a  
handful of javascript fragments and image 'placeholders'.

The point about a browser-agnostic solution rings true here, we can't  
be sure a browser will care about javascript/refresh/ajax. A plugin to  
modify the behavior of a particular browser is a good workaround.  
Apart from addressing security/privacy concerns, rewriting the fetched  
data is a bad idea.
