 Replying to [comment:9 markjaquith]:
 > We could use a transient for storing this value instead of raw cache
 get/set. That way people without persistent object caching would still
 benefit from the caching of that value.

 Transients came up when we originally did this, see #14405. Reading back
 through the ticket, what tipped the scales was an assumption that:
  * This query was fast
  * Transients require more queries

 However, an ''unexpiring'' transient is autoloaded. And this is the
 perfect use case for one, because we know when it needs to be cleared.
