Open source is generally quite kind to newbies, provided you provide that important context. Try to explain not just what you're doing, but also be very clear about why. Explain the problem as well as you can, and then discuss what solutions you've considered thus far. It sounds like you have a good understanding of the problem. If anything, I'd look into why the route cache was removed; perhaps there was a good reason for this? If nothing else, you can ask and learn something.
