Comment (by mikeperry):

 Though, after looking at the code, it does seem relatively straight-
 forward to re-introduce our old domain hack, but there are some wrinkles
 we need to figure out first. nsHttpChannel::GenerateCacheKey() still uses
 our domain logic, and is used in a cached redirect corner case... We'll
 want to ensure consistency here, and I'm not seeing for sure how
 nsICacheService::AsyncOpenURI() translates its aIdExtension parameter and
 uri into a complete key yet.
