How do you cache with dynamic headers? Next caches the same tag for each set of headers. Meaning every time the user changes JWT token, Next sets a new cache and the old remains until it expires.
How do I cache in a way that it kind of ignored headers? So that regardless of headers, all users get the exact same cache entry.

Imagine you have a cache on one year, this would flood the cache server eventually.

Well that doesn't solve anything, then you run into the risk of new entries not being created?
It also doesn't solve the issue that users constantly need new cache entries as soon as their JWT token expires (every 15 minutes).

What data are you trying to cache? Can you give an example function, and why headers make a problem.
