 * There are a couple of issues with the way caching is implemented in this plugin.
 * 1) There is no way to clear cached pages. This feature would make the next issue
   less important.
 * 2) The TTL on the cache is set when each page is cached. Subsequently changing
   the duration of the cache does not affect previously retrieved items.
 * Use case: Scraping a page, discovering an error on the scraped page, fixing the
   error on the scraped page, then re-scraping the page.
 * Currently there exists no way to re-scrape the page other than waiting for the
   cache, as it was when the page was originally scraped, to expire.
