FilterProtocol is slightly half-baked: filter modules should tell mod_filter
their protocol details when they register the filter instead.

But still, the above *should* cause it to set Cache-Control: no-cache
on requests where the filter is invoked (are you sure it is?)

If your browser sends a conditional request then the server might send a 304
without reference to any filters.  The cache=no option just sets the header
when the filter is invoked.

Is anything going on that might cause an internal redirect?
For example, mod_alias, mod_rewrite, mod_negotiation, any error,
or anything concerning trailing slashes or directory indexes?
Or a subrequest, as in SSI?
