Control+F5, is this standard in all browsers?

I know that IE and Firefox use this as a forced refresh without the cache, useful for when an image has updated or a dynamic page won't update through normal F5, but does this only work in IE and Firefox or do other browsers do it too?

Is it standard in every browser?

Are there any browsers that do not use it or use a differnet set of keys? (And yes, I know that Macs have that weird cloverleaf-loopy-thing key in place of control but that key and F5 still work don't they?)

F5 in windows has been the refresh key for IE for years. Anyway what I use.

I know that, F5 is a normal refresh in most browsers, and Control+F5 is a refresh that ignores the cache, at least in IE and Firefox, I wanted to know if that worked for other browsers as well.

Bypass your cache may explain parts of it.

I know this thread is coming up on it's 4th birthday, but I just registered on the forum to say thanks for the wikipedia link. Exactly what I was googling for!
