For now I think the decision was to leave the implementation as is. It is quite difficult to have the idea of merging multiple cache locations. We have encountered problems in the past concerning the multiple .libPaths with regards to updating and permissions and seems like we would potentially encounter something similar here.
It is feasible to do something with a little more manual work by having two defined bfc object - granted slightly more work for the user to have to look for and manage two but
bfccentral <- BiocFileCache("some/centralized/accessible/path")
bfcpersonal <- BiocFileCache("/home/user/somelocallocation")
from biocfilecache.
Thanks for having given some thought to the idea.
Indeed, I can also picture those issues similar to .libPaths
that would significantly complicate the management of the caches and create some painful conflicts.
Unless a real demand/scenario arises, it's probably better to leave this concept aside. I found it an interesting thought experiment though.
