Hey Willem,

I'm not aware of a feature like that.  The best place to ask this question
to see if anyone is working, or planning to work, on it is the developer
list.  I have copied it in so it show up there too.

Caching could be done by storing the returned results in a memory
spatialite database. The tricky thing is knowing when to get any new
results from the postgis database when things have changed on the database.
 How does Manifold handling viewing an area, updating something using SQL
on the database (not though Manifold) and then looking at that area again?
