Comment (by teor):

 Replying to [comment:2 nickm]:
 > IMO cacheing should probably happen on URLs that are cacheable (ie,
 consensuses).

 But when a cache stores a consensus, it also stores the X-Your-IP-Address
 header from either the cache's machine, or the original client that asked
 for the consensus.

 Neither of these values of X-Your-IP-Address-Is are valid for any other
 clients, but caches will typically send them out with the cached response.
