[issue1755841] Patch for [ 735515 ] urllib2 should cache 301 redir

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com> added the comment:

I haven't reviewed the patch, but I would like the caching behavior to
be settable.  I can easily imagine a use case where I would not want the
URLs cached: when using urllib in a test suite or test tool.  (I just
ran into this problem trying to use firefox as a test tool...at the time
I was doing it I wasn't aware that firefox cached the 301 responses).
