 Our current cache isolation relies on a cacheKey hack to isolate the
 content cache per domain. This requires an on-modify-request observer in
 javascript that could be done in C++ instead.

 We should implement something that sets this property directly in C++. Or
 perhaps we should see if we can leverage the new concurrent Private
 Browsing mode code to isolate both the image and content cache with much
 less complexity than our current patches.
