If digesting is going on, the requirement will likely be a little stronger -- the cache won't be able to combine headers from different responses, so the server should make sure that it always sends a complete set, or that it sends a digest of the set that the cache will choose to send, and perhaps the cache should detect if it gets out-of-date headers.
