Summary: Clear-Site-Data is a HTTP header sent by web servers to clear
various browser states for an origin. The "cache" directive indicates
to the browser that it should clear the networking cache and various
other caches it has for the origin.
We originally shipped “cache” support in Gecko starting with version
63. And unshipped in 93
<https://groups.google.com/a/mozilla.org/g/dev-platform/c/I939w1yrTp4/m/2ZaH0JwLBAAJ>due
to cross-site tracking concerns. The cross-site leak concerns are
documented in
https://github.com/privacycg/storage-partitioning/issues/11
<https://github.com/privacycg/storage-partitioning/issues/11>.
The new implementation shipping now has the cross-site leak concerns
addressed by only cleaning the partition the header was received in.
Tests for them are included in web-platform tests:

This is cool to see.
Do you intend to update the spec to match the assertions in your tests?
