Hi Nick,

the above store is used for the caching of all requests (and for other
purposes as well).

A response is stored inside the cache under a compound key. This key
is assembled by the different pipeline components (generator, transformers
etc).
The URI of the pipeline does not play a role in here!.

So, assuming a Pipeline with G->T1->T2->S and all four components cacheable
the key is build by getting the key from each component (G, T1, T2, S) and
then a string is build with exactly this information (see the
CachingStreamPipeline.java and CachingEventPipeline.java) for more
information.

So if you want to delete a cached response, you have to emulate this
creation
of the key, and remove the object stored under this key from the store.

But be warned that you use implementational details for this that might
change from one version of cocoon to another, so the building of the key
might be different in a future release.
