I have reasons for caching - I designed the cache etc. for a very god
reasona nd I make use of it in my code. App slike electic Eyes, E,
gtk-pixmap theme etc. rely on it for performance reasons. overriding
user preferences forcibly in gnome-libs is the most evil thing i've ever
seen. all performance issues wiht imlib and gnome hencefore I will deny
any responsability for. This is all on your head, not mine. I disagre
with you on this and I have my reasons. I will let you bog gnome down if
you want.
