Whatever the solution we arrive at for the Cache and Blacklisting (or 
weighting), the abstraction MUST support a NULL Cache implementation 
(which should be done just as a POC) so people who don't want caching 
can still compile the stack.
We definately want to cleanly separate the cache from the weighting it 
at all possible, otherwise we're getting into a very complicate mess 
potentially.

Thoughts?
