It doesn't necessarily have to be a QuerySet; any function or  method that 
takes some processing time could be decorated (e.g., an external call to an 
API). My aim is to reduce this code:

def do_some_processing():
    cache_key = "key"

    if cached_value := cache.get(cache_key):
        return cached_value

    fresh_value = do_some_computing()
    cache.set(cached_value, fresh_value, 30)
    return fresh_value

to this:

@cached_context("key", timeout=30)
def do_some_processing():
    return do_some_computing()


AFAIK cache.set evaluates QuerySets, how would that be a problem?.
