Squid change cache key

Question

Lets say you want to serve different content from the same url but still want to be able to use squid caching.

For example caching a logged in users homepage vs another user. Is there anyway to append a cookie to the request url before throwing it into the squid's cache?

Try playing with storeurl_rewrite_program:

http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v2/2.7/cfgman/storeurl_rewrite_program.html

Basically, it acts like a normal Squid rewrite / redirector program, but it ONLY affects the URL used to look up / store in the cache.
