Actually it's just a couple of lines of code if you use Dependency 
Injection as described in the wiki [1]:

in Classes/MVC/Web/Routing/UriBuilder.php:

<?php
class Tx_MyExtension_MVC_Web_Routing_UriBuilder extends 
Tx_Extbase_MVC_Web_Routing_UriBuilder {

	protected $firstLevelCache = array();

	public function uriFor($actionName = NULL, $controllerArguments = 
array(), $controllerName = NULL, $extensionName = NULL, $pluginName = 
NULL) {
		$cacheHash = 'foo'; // create unique hash based on given settings & 
parameters
		if (!isset($this->firstLevelCache[$cacheHash])) {
			$this->firstLevelCache[$cacheHash] = parent::uriFor($actionName, 
$controllerArguments, $controllerName, $extensionName, $pluginName);
		}
		return $this->firstLevelCache[$cacheHash];
	}
}
?>


In ext_typoscript_setup.txt:

config.tx_extbase.objects {
	Tx_Extbase_MVC_Web_Routing_UriBuilder {
		className = Tx_MyExtension_MVC_Web_Routing_UriBuilder
	}
}






If you have a good working solution, feel free to share it so we might 
add this feature to the core of Extbase (or maybe better to the TYPO3 core).

This was actually Jochens first approach when he wrote "thebridge" [2] 
about two years ago. See [3] for the reason why this couldn't work out 
as official way to support the transition.

Best,
