-----------------------------------------------+--------------------------
this has been discussed in the new-features repository
https://github.com/django/new-features/issues/95

as mentioned other parts of django (orm and django.tasks) are already
doing this
and it also greatly helps 3rd party libraries that work with django's
cache framework, `django-redis`, `django-valkey` and `django-debug-
toolbar` to name a few

considering the size of this proposal, i am not sure if this requires a
dep, if so, please let me know and i'll start working on one

New description:

this has been discussed in the new-features repository
https://github.com/django/new-features/issues/95

this proposal will change how cache backends are instantiated, so the
instance will be aware of the alias name configured for each backend

it would require the existing backends to be updated to match the new
syntax
3rd party libraries would probably need to update as well

as mentioned other parts of django (orm and django.tasks) are already
doing this
and it also greatly helps 3rd party libraries that work with django's
cache framework, `django-redis`, `django-valkey` and `django-debug-
toolbar` to name a few

considering the size of this proposal, i am not sure if this requires a
dep, if so, please let me know and i'll start working on one
