Comment (by christandiono):
I have to say that, while changing the behavior of
CACHE_MIDDLEWARE_ANONYMOUS_ONLY might seem like the route to take (and I'd
certainly like it that way), I'm not sure it is: SessionMiddleware uses a
different session per anonymous user because there are some sites that
might actually require different sessions per anonymous user. Instead, I
think there should be a new setting that causes SessionMiddleware to
consider all anonymous users to be part of the same session, or not create
sessions for anonymous users. Something like "if ANONYMOUS_SHARE_SESSION,
don't set Vary: Cookie".
CACHE_MIDDLEWARE_ANONYMOUS_ONLY doesn't kill anonymous caching efficiency;
it's that we're trying to use it in a way it's not necessarily meant to be
used...
