As discussed in https://groups.google.com/g/django-
developers/c/UbD1DkV1uPo and https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/11269
it would be useful to be able to specify a callable which would allow for
more dynamic caching. In my case, I need to cache differently depending on
whether the user is authenticated or not. Another scenario is to cache
certain pages depending on some timestamp. Other uses cases were mentioned
in the linked pages.
There exists https://github.com/peterbe/django-fancy-cache but I was able
to address this by extending the built-in middleware so I really don't see
an argument for a 3rd party package.
I'll try to open a PR for this.
