Think about it this way: having to use a different keybinding to clear the cache is much less irritating than having (potentially) multiple days of communication disappear with no ability to recall. Also, I would guess that the number of people who use ctrl+L as a shortcut for the url bar is much higher than the number of people who use it to clear a text buffer. Basically, a shortcut as frequently used as ctrl-L should not be a destructive action that can't be reverted. Probably the best solution would be a configurable shortcut for clearing the cache.
