It is a bit of wishful thinking, but could be cool if they had an AndroidX package with some kind of global caching system. Problem is though, how do you make a caching mechanism that can fit all use cases.

Start with LRU and maybe a frequency counter to keep frequently useful data. Then go from there. Same as most apps do themselves right now but redistribute as needed; slowly take a bit away from all other apps when one app needs more
