'Named' cache groups under a single manifest url is an interesting idea. Presumably the webapp would be generating the 'name' in the manifest file based on a cookie value. Another possibility is something along the lines of what is proposed in the DataCache draft: the manifest indicates a cookie name, and the value of that cookie determines the 'name' of the subgroup. And the value of that cookie also determines which subgroup is enabled at any given time.
