[squid-users] Clearing ACLs on reload?

Hi,

I was wondering how I could clear entries from certain ACL during reload
of squid configuration?

I was looking if I could for example add a line like this (not valid, of
course):

acl local_domains reset
acl local_domains "/etc/squid/local_domains.acl"

The issue here is that I need to control access to parent proxy by ACLs,
and sometimes entries need to be removed from a ACL. Because the ACL
rules always add to the existing ACL, removing a line from external file
and reloading squid does not actually remove it from running configuration.

For me it would be fine, if there were a way to do this, with a reset
rule before the ACL entries, right now I can add new ACL entries by
reloading, but to remove I need to restart squid completely.

I'm using ubuntu package, 2.6.18-1ubuntu2. I can upgrade to 3.x release
if this would solve my problem.
