 I think this needs to be revisited, even if it's just creating a way to
 allow a plugin to cache the wp_get_nav_menu_items() function.  A simple
 menu that is only one level deep causes 3 extra queries.

 Almost all core widgets have caching or use functions that have caching
 built in and WP Super Cache isn't a solution for sites that have a high
 percentage of logged in users.
