"If the no-cache directive does not specify a field-name, then a cache MUST NOT 
use the response to satisfy a subsequent request without successful 
revalidation with the origin server. This allows an origin server to prevent 
caching even by caches that have been configured to return stale responses to 
client requests."

varnish currently only uses max-age to check the cacheability of objects, and 
not Pragma: no-cache or Cache-Control: no-cache/private. This can be done with 
some vcl code, but IMHO vcl is not the right place.
 
Why not fully support RFC2616 caching ?
