Pragma has never been sent out on a secure connection until recently (rev 1.13) This is brand new behavior and it causes problems with IE under SSL. At the time you even said you'd be willing to roll it back. I'd be happy to leave cache-control to no-cache, it is the Pragma that is killing us. Are you aware of a client that depends solely on Pragma for cache instruction? I would argue that being unable to serve pages to IE under SSL is more significant than a caching problem in a client that doesn't understand cache-control.

I'd like to omit pragma header by default. What specific client requires it? The community has identified a specific, widespread failure with the former code-- it did not work out of the box with IE under SSL. So, if we want to keep the pragma header the default, what are the reasons?


I am not willing to discuss this issue. This has been like this forever, the behavior was not introduced by myself, and existing flags do exist. Your new flag restricts security, and could cause inappropriate caching of pages on the client, which could cause user errors on important sections of the website.
