I've read those docs, indeed, and I've run a test against 1.0.5. 
I see ~0.25s response time for a SEARCH on eg msg-id but ~15-35s on 
X-something. After that 1st run, SEARCH on same X-* takes ~same (~10kmsg
mailbox).
So I guessed index cache is done on the fly for any SEARCHd for item, but 
in memory only, since checking index files after test didn't show such 
X-something.
But re-checking now, I realize I must have checked index files too early: 
my custom X-something are right there into index.cache. 
So I think it might already be smart enough for our purpose :)

thanks
