Couldn't deleting cookies have the same effect? If we do want to set or keep
cookies on logout, do they need to be included in X-Vary-Options and bypass
squid caching?  We could also consider loading login/userbar stuff via
javascript and allow logged in users to take advantage of squid caching
provided care was taken for active editors.
