Caching tabs separately would make no sense at all.

Go to:

edmullen.net
edmullen.biz

Do about:cache?device=disk

The images are identical on those two pages but are refereed to in the
cache list by the domain names.  I can't see how it could be any
different.  SM has no way of knowing if two files of the same name are
the same content.

OK, suppose you go to two different pages at the same site in two different tabs. For example, my local property records office has a parcel search and an address search and an owner name search. Suppose I open three tabs with a different search option in each one. Much of the content will be the same -- the county logo, the background image, the css, etc. So if I load the first search, this shared content should be available from cache when I load the next search, even though it's a different tab. The shared content has the same URL no matter where or when I load it. As A Williams says, it makes no sense to keep separate caches.
