The two objections to caps are always that a) ZOMG someone can

My understanding was that this proposal was addressing /both/; not
only making caps something self-validating, but also extending the
cache to be globally valid?
I wasn't trying the solve problem b, because I didn't see it as a
problem. Still don't for that matter. If you're on a low-size
device, it's an optimization that you can use. I'm a little leery of
using caps from one client to represent another, but I don't have a
reason for that leeriness, near as I can tell.
