Re: CACHE_MIDDLEWARE_ANONYMOUS_ONLY isn't working for me

I did some more experimenting. Perhaps I misunderstood the purpose of
CACHE_MIDDLEWARE_ANONYMOUS_ONLY.

The view in my example below is a simple generic list view, and it did
not interrogate request.user or make any
request.user.is_authenticated() type checks. If I add those checks to
the template, then after I change a model in the admin, I see the view
update with those changes when I am logged in. Unfortunately it also
updates even when I'm not logged in (testing with a 2nd browser).

So unless I am missing something, the usefulness of
CACHE_MIDDLEWARE_ANONYMOUS_ONLY is much more limited than I thought.
