I mean that you need to change how Squid uses the no_cache directive.
The way the directive is used by Squid today do what you want, but it
does not need to stay that way. The only reason why it is that way is
because this is how it happened to get implemented years ago.

Squid is Open Source. You can do almost whatever you want with the
software, most importantly if it does not do exactly what you need out
of the box you can have it changed. People needing changes is an
important aspect of how Open Source software develops, apart from
dumbasses like me who do it just for the fun of it B-)
