Aha. I missed that. Thanks--that is very clear.

This is more a question on HTTP, but: if a request includes an
"Authorization:" header, and the origin response includes "Cache-control:
Public", does that mean the cache will now fulfill subsequent requests for
the object *without* requiring an authorization header? In other words, the
object suddenly no longer requires authorization?

Thanks,
