The session cache interface in mod_ssl on the trunk is now mostly SSL-

There is still some tight coupling between the session cache and the
ssl_mutex interface, but that's next on my hit list.
Is there any interest in seeing this extracted from mod_ssl and made
available for general use? It could probably e.g. be used by
mod_auth_digest for the MD5-sess code, and I can think of some
third-party modules which could probably use it too (mod_gnutls).
My vague plan would be to finish de-SSL-ifying the code, then moving
it
to modules/cache and calling it mod_sesscache or mod_socache ("small
object") or something along those lines.

How about mod_gicache (for generic internal cache)? Otherwise
mod_socache
is good. I'm expecting that it's a generic internal cache and
naming it sesscache may confuse the issue.
