Ah... if that's the case, then indeed it's a poor choice for eln-cache.
I can't seem to find clear docs about it.

I see mentions of "equivalent to /var/cache", which would work well for
us since `/var/cache` is normally never cleared even after a reboot.
`ls -R ~/.cache` shows I have files from 2020 in my `.cache` even though
I rebooted this machine 2 months ago.

So empirically, it doesn't seem inappropriate on my (Debian +
XFCE4) system.
