[ian@…]

add some instrumentation to the cache object so we can see how effective it is.
personally I think the counters could go on all the cache objects.

Eh, I'm not sure this has general interest, so I'm marking it as a wontfix. Memcached already has its own framework for viewing this sort of data, BTW, and although the other backends don't, I don't see this as a big deal.
