Does mod_cache set anything in req->notes if it has decided to cache it?

(AFAIK, req->notes is a struct used by modules to set flags -- "notes"
-- and small values when you want inter-module smarts such as
these...)

If it does, or can be taught to do, then crccache_client can register
on the same hooks, but after mod_cache.

These are suggestions from afar, I haven't hacked with the apache API
for a while, mod_cache in itself may offer better hooks.
