I stand to be corrected but isn't there two levels to this?

F5 by itself forces a refresh (ie not relying on local copy in temp internet files) but I thought the addition of Ctrl + F5 actually forced a complete refresh from the originating site by changing the nature of the request from in effect "send me changes since last visit" to "Re-send everything" or something along those lines.

AFAIK the proxy should pass on that request (or rather its more accurate technical version) and ignore even its own cached version, or am I getting confused?
