I remember this particular caching layer causing a one or two insidious
bugs in the past, all of which were nearly impossible to figure out.  I
would be wary of doing anything other than (a) keeping the classic
(non-fesl) authN code in its present state, caching and all or (b)
deprecating with the intent of full removal.

That's a good question.   I don't think any of the system tests exercise
the classic authn code any more, and I think deprecation/removal was an
ultimate target.
