I am also having this issue and can't find a way to fix it. setData
doesn't seem to actually update any of the options that were set on
load. This may be just my misunderstanding of how the plugin works,
but on line 625 we see this code:
if ( "data" in arguments[1] )
cache.populate();
In testing this, the execution doesn't ever seem to reach the
cache.populate() code because arguments[1] is *always* (as far as I
can tell, passing in different options) an _empty_ struct no matter
what struct of options is passed in.
Thanks to anyone who could shed some light on this!
