Well, then I was myself confused by the comments in squid.conf :
# TAG: always_direct
# Usage: always_direct allow|deny [!]aclname ...
#
# Here you can use ACL elements to specify requests which should
# ALWAYS be forwarded directly to origin servers. For example,
# to always directly forward requests for local servers use
# something like:
#
# acl local-servers dstdomain my.domain.net
# always_direct allow local-servers

Have I mistaken "local servers" for , say, "intranet servers" ?
What you are telling me, is that : If I don't use cache peers, then I don't
need this directive ?

Cheers,

Andrew.
