There is some movement on this areaa, since Pierre checked in a
'CachePolicy', and months ago I already proposed a system for pluggable
backings (which did not meet very much enthousiasm btw).

I think the 'query-caches' are quite good, but could be a bit
smarter. Perhaps we can also split them up (long lived, short lived
entries or so), and the CachePolicy can perhaps be used to decide which
query is going in which cache.

Correctness is quite important too, so it would suprize me a bit that a
specialized cache could be much better then the Query-cache
implemetnation.  But what actually would be your ideas?
