Andrew Wang commented on HDFS-5051:
-----------------------------------

Gotcha, makes sense. I definitely only wanted to address caching finalized 
blocks at first, but I was thinking about the case where an 
"append+write+close" would lead to a finalized block with a new longer length. 
Let's punt that out to an "auto-caching" subtask (will file).

So, I'll remove the gen stamp and length in HDFS-5092; will edit it with this 
and the other todo items.
