 wanted the user to be aware that the data will be loaded into memory,
 possibly taking a lot of memory if the master file is large, so making him
 explicitly set it.

 of XFR-IN/XFR-OUT that don't want the master files. However, the rest of
 the data sources should be loaded, so it is not good to reject such
 configuration, nor it is good to cache the master files into memory in
 that case. Would you know of a better solution?

 part of the potential confusion/unexpected result may be that it's not
 really what most people consider a cache :) I can see erroring instead of
 loading to enforce its explicit setting, but given the second one, that is
 a specific use-case, which may make sense, I'm just a bit afraid that
 people think they have it loaded because it is silently ignored.
