 Currently plugin and theme developers pass strings and other types as
 expirations to the wp_cache_set, wp_cache_add, set_transient instead of
 the int that is required.
 This causes issues when one uses object-cache.php drop in which connects
 to APC or other caching backends.

 There should be stricter control of int values in these functions.
 Typecasting to ints and a wrong param type notice/warning. Preferably
 warning so plugin/theme developers are made aware of their wrong usage of
 the functions.
