Why not? The range-parameters seem predictable enough. In the squid/nginx 
setup we use we see a caching effect of stored chunks -  the range chunks are 
requested multiple times by multiple clients. In our setup, where disk space 
is cheap and bandwidth is expensive this is well justified, in my opinion.

However: I have started only recently to learn about this proxy setup. If 
there are reasons against caching range-URLs, please do tell! I'm always 
willing to learn :)
