I started a virus scan a couple of days ago and wondered why scanning seemed to hang up on a particular file. Investigating further I found it was a folder -- of cached Bing images dating back from the first days of my remote mapping activity to the present. There were 450,000 of them! It has taken me two days running at 100% computer utilization much of the time to get rid of them. (Maybe I did it wrong. Simply deleting the containing folder containing the last 150,000 just took a couple of minutes.)

Caching images for a given session makes lots of sense, but leaving them forever really does not. How do I put a request in to the JOSM developers to ensure that images caches are deleted upon exit from JOSM?
