It sounds as if this feature has been added by others already and hasn't found it's way into the main tree. Maybe it just wasn't coded well enough to make it in. It seems it should be a really simple feature to add, that shouldn't interfere with the running cache in any way, and those whose use of the cache would make using save/restore a bad thing could just choose not to use it. I can understand not adding features that would have a negative impact on the project but stuff that is essentially painless I can't understand leaving out. Project management is never fun. At least with open source projects if I have to have the feature I don't have to pay $300+ an hour and wait months to get it done.
