Original design is located at:

Question..
Why did you choose a separate interface and not a Cache() method of the user
object?

it depends on the side you are looking from. The way in the design page is easier, but if we want to put it directly on user and group object paths, we can do it for example this way:

Interface:
org.freedesktop.sssd.infopipe.Cache

It will be implemented on:
/org/freedesktop/sssd/infopipe/Users
/org/freedesktop/sssd/infopipe/Groups

Methods will be (or other names):
ao List()
ao ListByDomain(s:domain)

Interface:
org.freedesktop.sssd.infopipe.Cache.Object

It will be implemented on:
/org/freedesktop/sssd/infopipe/Users/$uid
/org/freedesktop/sssd/infopipe/Groups/$gid

Methods will be (or other names):
b Store()
b Remove()

The advantage is the the caller (and also in sssd) can simply recognize if the cached object is a user or a group without the need to parse the object path.
