True, and this is why auto-caching should be clearly documented
and why there should be a command line switch to disable it
on demand. I think nobody ever suggested to do otherwise.
My suggestion is to enable auto-caching as an experimental
feature for say 6 months. If in this time frame you will get
hordes of users complaining about caching-related problems,
then you will just disable it as default in the following Ikarus version.
If no problem arises, you will just keep it.
