It /might/ be useful for someone who regularly updates older CDs. If
he keeps using the same cache file, they will only have to be scanned
once.

Maybe the default location for the cache file should be
~/.jigdo-file-cache.db. However, many people will only use jigdo from
time to time and the cache file can get quite large, so jigdo "power
users" should probably change the location themselves in their
~/.jigdo-lite.

This conflicts a bit with:
 - jigdo-lite should be so easy to use that it doesn't need docs :)
 - jigdo-lite is only intended as a temporary solution until the GUI
   app works.

Still, I agree - more docs would be nice.

<sigh>, you sounded a lot as if you were... :)
Anybody else? (docbook format would be cool.)
