Ideally I'd like to cache cgi-bin / ? content if cache information is
given (max-age, Expires, etc; henrik knows more about the options than
I!) and not cache the rest.

I'm not sure my current refresh patterns handle this:

refresh_pattern ^ftp:           1440    20%     10080
refresh_pattern ^gopher:        1440    0%      1440
refresh_pattern cgi-bin         0       0%      0
refresh_pattern \?              0       0%      0
refresh_pattern .               0       20%     4320

Will what I've done above actually stop storing the data entirely, or will
it try revalidating it every request? Is there really a difference?
