Comment (by westonruter):
I just [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/49258#comment:3 learned] of
the [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Reference/Headers
/Clear-Site-Data Clear-Site-Data] header as well.
Upon logging out, the following header can be sent:
{{{
Clear-Site-Data: "cache"
}}}
According to MDN, it says it "might" clear out the bfcache "depending on
the browser". In testing with Chrome, however, this doesn't seem to work.
So the JavaScript-based client-side bfcache invalidation still seems
needed.
