Trust me, it works :)

This was one of the basic design goals of the new cache, but the code for it was never written.

It was logged as a bug against the original v1.3 proxy cache, which suffered from thundering herd when cache entries expired.

At some point soon when my mailbox is a little less full and I have a week or two spare, I plan to fix this problem if nobody beats me to it :)
