This was my original implementation but it was changed to this explicit API with the reasoning
that doing this caching should be an explicit act of intent and not just a simple flag working globally.

Note, if more than just xml based metadata could be cached that would be awesome - but that might be
better solved via something like AS7 annotation index mechanism.
