That is exactly the reason why I was against this patch in the first
place; I remembered that your quite similar caching patch was not as
simple as it looked in the first place and we ironed out the caused bugs
during quite some time while it was in trunk. The same thing would not
have been possible if we already released a stable patch level version
with it.
