Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: apache2
I was surprised to find that the deflate module automatically
compresses HTML, XML and text when enabled. But since it does, why
not go one step further and auto-compress all CSS and Javascript?
It's pretty much a de facto standard recommendation these days
(e.g. YSlow, webpagetest.org etc.) and I can't imagine it's any more
risky in terms of browser compatability than the existing config (or
any more of a surprise to the admin).

when deflate is enabled, please also compress CSS and JS by default?
