What would you like to discuss?

I'd like to override got caching so to extend what the remote headers ask me to do.
I currently use the max-stale in the request header to extend somehow the caching, but this doesn't work if the remote service use strict caching headers and got doesn't even store them.

I tried manipulating response headers in the .on('response', ) hook, but this doesn't work. Sounds like got caches the manipulated response, but the cachecontrol is precomputed into a different property and uses the original cache-control.

I guess this is something happending in cacheable-request makeRequest's response handler that calls the ee.emit('response') AFTER storing the response, so maybe I should open an issue against the "cacheable-request" project, but my knowledge of got internals is very limited, so I preferred to start with this question as maybe you can identify a better way or a workaround to alter if and how long got caches a result.
