Nobody said it is squids fault. :-) But a user expects "things to work" and if 
one of the servers answers correctly it would be nice of squid to handle this 
accordingly. I fail to see why this would be a bad idea.

And it would be a consistent suer experience since most browsers do the same. I 
have read about a patch for squid 1.x years ago and assumed it would be in 2.X 
as well. I take it that the current implementation is not able to handle this 
scenario?


Kind regards,
