Details

Shift + [Reload Button] does a forced refresh of a website, telling caches and proxies to ignore what they think they know and check the source for sure. This options isn't available through the menus, and should be a seperate menu item alongside Reload to show users there are multiple options. See my bug 79990 for cross-reference.
RFE. But this is content, not toolkit.

Summary: Forced reload menu item → add a menu item for 'Forced reload'
Ah, if this were a native Mac app, we'd provide this feature by making the `Reload' menu item become `Super Reload' when the Option key was held down. That's what 3.x did. But since we can't (and IMO shouldn't be able to) do that in XUL, I really don't know we could provide access to this feature in a non-confusing manner.
