Research direction
Read RFC 7234 section 4.1 and inspect AsyncCachingHandler.scala at line 207, where the cache request handles keys. Trace how secondary keys are represented and used, then implement Vary-aware secondary-key handling. Done means cache requests manage secondary keys according to the RFC without breaking existing cache behavior.
