Comment:

 Hello

 Replying to [comment:9 jelte]:
 > 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.

 Well, we need to support that use case, because that one is very real for
 us. And the `allow_cache` is set by the application, not by the user (so
 user can't set it to false in auth and be surprised it doesn't work). The
 MasterFiles type needs a warning in the documentation it does not work for
 XFROut/XFRIn.

 What we can do is adding a warning to logs in such case. We could also
 special-case the MasterFiles type somehow in the XFROut, but it makes
 little sense for XFRIn. But that'd go to a separate ticket.

 Or, do you have any other idea?
