Often the dom has been changed, and you want to know what the server actually sent

You can still do that with the inspect menu; if you look at the network history in Chrome, you can see the headers sent, the headers received and the body sent / received.

That only works if you have it open before the page loaded. It doesn't save information about network requests that occurred before the inspector was opened.

It would be handy if it did though since I continually forget to open inspector before the request.

I'd love a "I'm a developer, store all the things!" setting

Shouldn't caching have the opposite effect? i.e. it's treated as a new resource but no new http request is needed because it's in the cache..
