It just popped into my mind.
Right here: https://api.backdropcms.org/api/backdrop/core%21includes%21cache.inc/fun...
static $cache_objects;
if (!isset($cache_objects[$bin])) {
$class = settings_get('cache_class_' . $bin);
if (!isset($class)) {
$class = settings_get('cache_default_class', 'BackdropDatabaseCache');
}
We are using settings_get function to properly direct cache features based on settings.php
But it is really old way and we have better solution - JSON settings!
So how about to keep this data in config('cache.settings') ?
This way cache settings could be easy transferred between different websites.
Also we can ADD admin/settings/cache page and not experienced users will be able to select different (available) methods for different bins.

Two issues would benefit from testing and code reviews; they've been around for a while and no takers. It would be a shame for these to miss the next releases. View Table Headings...
