 Actually this is very good idea. Perhaps even further, define separate
 counters by ACL's, and then sum these together to get all-totals.
 It is very often that Squid is used for specific traffic and rest is
 not interesting, but cannot be denied access. For eg. local traffic
 that is not cached is drifting hitrate stats towards less efficiency
 than actually there is.

 Imagine:

Cache information for squid:
        Request Hit Ratios: 5min: 60min:
                    LOCALS: 7.7% 6.8%
                       COM: 40.1% 38.7%
                    Totals: 34.2% 29.6%

           Byte Hit Ratios: 5min: 60min:
                    LOCALS: 8.1% 7.8%
                       COM: 52.1% 49.7%
                    Totals: 33.4% 31.3%
