I totally agree! For example I want to be able to have nocache for only a logon
action but allow other actions to be cached. In case user bookmarks a uri within
the app I anyway check the logon validity in control servlet and via tag on
every JSP page. And for all but logon I don't care if user hits reload or back
button on a browser (actually I would prefer this).

Thanks,
