Its presence in the request message should not do anything special
with respect to caching as far as I am concerned.  Doing something
special would make possible some new denial-of-caching-service attacks.

            I think that 13.10 means `the Content-Location headers in
the response' here, rather than `any content location headers in the
request or the response'.

         add `in the response' here.
