Yeah, sorry, it was not so much about the TTL as the ability to still lookup
the cached page and pass the POST through to the ESI. I understand we can
increase the TTL of the ESI, but the real goal here is to have a separate
ESI only server that handles all authenticated traffic, while keeping the
frontend server served completely from the Varnish cache.
