It's really only a matter of caching things properly (ETag from server of squid-generated), and fiddling the headers slightly as they transit Squid in both directions. Should not matter which HTTP/1.x version is used at the header level, since both can handle compressed data objects. 3.1 already does TE decoding. But we can't do the TE encoding until 1.1, only Content-Type re-coding.

Re: [squid-users] state of gzip/transfer-encoding?
So how much is needed exactly to support this when we currently don't support HTTP/1.1?
