Huh? What exactly do you think the cost of planning is, if not
enumeration and selection? There isn't very much that's cacheable,
at least not in any sanely-sized cache.

Run time. The development cost of what you are proposing is negligible:
just rip out the plan cache altogether. I don't believe it would be a
performance win though.
