I think disabling no_cache is a very bad idea. Instead set_no_cache() should be disabled from extensions. The  way to do it is simple: save and restore value of no_cache var in a local var of tslib_cObj::USER() function. That's all. Sometimes no_cache makes real sense and disabling it completely is a bad thing.

I am not sure who had the idea to disable no_cache. I do not remember seeing it in core list. But I doubt we can set it by default to "disable". This is bad idea. Machine must not try to be more clever than human.
