I'd like to second this request...This would let you still have a cache if OW  
crashes ;-) or you have to logout, etc. A comprimise would be a "level 2"  
type setup where things migrate to disk, this could be done by a thread while  
OW was idle, but now I'm making it pretty complicated.

Also I'd love to see some running indicator of the amount of cache used,  
maybe even on a "per window" and comprehensive scale?

thanx,
