Squid-2.1 and HTTP/1.1 queries

Hi there

If I have a Squid-2.1 server talking to a HTTP/1.1 server, and the user
(running Netscape/IE 4+) breaks their connection while downloading a really
large URL, what happens the next time they go and try to download it?

Will Squid cache the half-finished download and then use HTTP/1.1
byte-ranges to get the rest? (assuming timestamps/etc imply the URL hasn't
changed of course).

That would be cool... :-)
