I'd forgotten about that. Yes, as long as shift+reload works properly. I
was getting confused by my experiences with other browsers (as a web
developer I *have* to test sites in IE) where nothing short of clearing
the cache will do the trick.

Yep. I think you're right. In which case perhaps there isn't any need
for any user visible cache settings at all.

I'm not sure about cookies. I personally find a cookie manager useful,
but could live without it if it was decided that the target user base of
Epiphany doesn't need such a thing.
