"Filling caches on demand" is an old pattern. I don't think that we
are doing anything new here.

If we add an opt-in option, I would prefer to have an option to
explicitly "fill caches", rather than the opposite.

I know another example of "lazy cache": base64.b85encode() fills a
cache at the first call.
