It probably wouldn't hurt to check in both places. I think you're right and
checking for a bootstrap resource might be better (or clearer to another
developer) than checking Zend_Registry.
The question that comes to mind when running into this code later is "Where
does the cache get initialized?". Zend_Registry gives us no clues as to
where or when that cache was registered, but the bootstrap resource clues us
in to the bootstrap.
