<shrug>  I'm sorry that I can't figure out why it works for you like 
that.  I've always known the cache to store by dbobject class name.  So I'm 
not sure what's going on.... :(

Each cache system is independent for each data context.  Because the 
initial data contexts were designed to be as independent as possible and 
not permit accidental crosstalk.  If you want to share the same dbobject, 
you'll need some sort of proxy that stores it in each cache associated with 
each data context.
