Or wherever. Main point was "reusable", but actually that depends on how long it takes to build the cache (okay, i'll call it cache).

It also gives me a warm fuzzy feeling that no bogus "auxillary
information" can be introduced by fetching from somewhere else. (It
does not matter if intended or unintended.)
I agree on that.
So you agree we should _not_ store it in a pack, fetchable?
I agree that it had advantages if you can opt out.
So, if you _do_ have it in a pack, fetchable, what happens if you
regenerated it locally, fixing a flaw, but then fetch it from somewhere
else, where the flaw possibly still exists, what do you do?
the same what happens if you repack a pack locally. the pack won't be re-fetched, thus your data won't be overwritten.
