So I'd suggest it's worth doing something like this - unless of course you
want to go the whole way and implement "smart" plan caching with user

Thanks Jonathan. Yes, something along these lines is what I wanted to do. My
only hesitation was that plans are cached indefinitely on the face, but if we
only cache global-only plans, I'm still quite comfortable with that.
I wondered whether perhaps we should limit the number of plans that a
face can cache - start discarding old plans if the number goes past
about 10 or so. That would degrade gracefully and avoid uncontrolled
growth if a badly-coded (or malicious!) site keeps adding random (or
duplicated) features to the list, but still give the performance boost
for any normal use-cases.
Will clean up and pick this one. May take a week or so though as I'll be at
Iceland Airwaves for the rest of the week.
Cheers,
