Is not that always the case? Even if a store refuses to accept objects
larger than X KB, that does not mean that all objects will be X KB in
size, regardless of any reasonable X value. Or did you mean something
else by "unbounded"?

Technically, core does not know the true content size for some responses
until the response has been received, but I do not remember whether we
allow such responses to be cachable.
