Thats my point! I would suggest changing the method

t3lib_BEfunc::storeHash($hash, $data, $ident)

to

t3lib_BEfunc::storeHash($hash, $data, $ident, $convert = false)

and any call to storeHash which would like to let the API handle data 
conversion should set $convert to true. This wont break existing code, 
and any part of the core could get changed and extension authors like 
Jigal could update their extensions to let the API handle un/serialization.

But this is just a proposal. If you think this is a good idea I'll 
create a bugtracker entry, patch and corelist request ... I mean - hey. 
It saves you 50% time of outputting cached pages when using memory caches!
