Hello,

I was reviewing some third-party code today and noticed many bugs in it
that arise from FilePath's caching behavior.

I found https://github.com/twisted/twisted/issues/3161 (only after I wrote
up https://github.com/twisted/twisted/issues/11676 though).

The cache behavior is long-standing but I think it needs to go.  It
represents a dangerous and subtle trap for anyone who tries to use
FilePath, which I would *like *to be everyone - but that would be an easier
sell without traps like this one.

Jean-Paul
