 Well, yes that I see. I ask here because the most important part of
what I have in mind is squid in tandem with an ICAP plugin, so you
should know best about technologies around it. I am not asking for you
to do such thing or change the design of squid for me.

 I was actually thinking in terms of some sort of "squid caching
sessions" instead of having squid running on all local machines, but I
have to think more about why you have suggested such a solution (or
possibly misinterpreted my idea)
