user agent history buffer behavior is slightly outside of the HTTP
realm, but I would suggest that must-revalidate applies to history
buffer views as well, preventing stale information from being shown
without validation.

And if that's not sufficient then one can always resort to no-store..
preventing any form of caching of the response.
