Summary: request for cachedir list

Initial Comment:
It would be nice to have a list of cachedirs
or an additional usercachedir.
Reason: many installations are not controlled
by the user.  At work I use jpython maintained
by the sysadmin group which is mounted readonly.
If I could specify an additional cachedir then
I would avoid all the warning/error messages
on startup.   Thanks -- Matt

Can you use the existing jython registry setting
python.cachedir to override the system default for yourself?
According to:

  http://www.jython.org/docs/registry.html

you should be able to override this from the command line,
or even more generally, invoke jython with say (unix example):

  jython -Duser.dir=/home/myusername

then put a copy of the jython registry as
/home/myusername/.jython, and customize the various settings
for yourself, including python.cachedir. 

Does that help? Or do you really want to have some cachedir
shared and some user-specific?
