Sorry for the lack of response earlier. Squid v6 has implemented this header and replaced old X-Cache and X-Cache-Lookup outputs with Cache-Status. This version is currently still in development builds, and should start to see widespread use sometime 2022. Experience with the header itself so far is that it reduces confusion a lot over conflicting labels from the X-Cache* using the same words with slightly different meanings. This benefit alone has been useful enough that we plan to keep this change. We emphasize that other implementers should take care to understand the security section of this document before going beyond simple HIT/MISS indicators. Amos Jeffries The Squid Software Foundation
