Description

When using Google Analytics on a Django project with CacheMiddleware and SessionMiddleware turned on, the Cookies that Google Analytics apparently change on each reload, invalidating the Vary: Cookie parameter that SessionMiddleware is setting.

There should be a way to define cookie prefixes, such as 'utm', to ignore for cookie variation for caching.
