The whole point of this issue is that it breaks back compatibility.  EFC is a pointless class.  Read the description.

Besides the fact that adding methods to FieldCache itself breaks back compatibility since it is an interface, even if no one can implement it.

> It is silly that we have ExtendedFieldCache.  It is a workaround to our supposed back compatibility problem.  This patch will merge the ExtendedFieldCache interface into FieldCache, thereby breaking back compatibility, but creating a much simpler API for FieldCache.
