The relations or others things like operators, functions, etc. Right?

There must be possible define some callback specific data too, the
callback maybe will search query in some own specific cache and it
require some key.

Hmm, it can depend on action, I can imagine:
DROP TABLE tab;
ERROR: mycallback(): can't rebuild the query used in PL/SQL function
'xyz'. Please drop this function first.
...table drop failed.
This is maybe not possible implement now, but it's ideal conception
:-)

Agree. It means store to cache query string too (I not sure if it's
used in current qcache, but it's simple).
There can be one query cache and one cached planns checking only, for RI,
SPI, PL/SQL, PREPARE/EXECUTE. Or not? I think implement 4x same things is
terrible.
