While I think this is a good idea, I'd like to consider renaming this particular directive as I think the name is really confusing. My concern is that CacheIgnoreCacheControl only refers to the request's Cache-Control not the origin response's Cache-Control header. But, I like that separation because having it refer to both is too coarse-grained, I think. But, I don't have any real ideas for what an alternative name is. -- justin
