Don't you just hate it when you ask a question, and all you get 
is more questions and opposition in return?  :-)

Ah, but there is more to sessions than just the URL!  The URL you posted
to the list didn't work for me, because I didn't create the session!

And if your admin is pissed at you, you have A LOT more things to worry
about, like s/he sniffing your passwords from the firewall box.

That could be a good thing to know and foil!  :->

I'm still not convinced!  ;-)

Besides, I'm not going to answer your question anyway, because I've
never tried excluding sites from the cache, and I don't know how!  :-)
