Comment:

 Replying to [ticket:16505 saraedum]:
 > Currently, there is no way to only remove some keys. This is sometimes
 necessary if values in the cache are not usable anymore

 For this use case, I see no reason to raise `KeyError` when the key does
 not exist: I would just ignore non-existing keys.

 You should add doctests showing that this also works for a weak cached
 function and a cached method (not just plain cached functions).
