Sounds like a very nice solution.
No need for disk IO just to make windows happy.

And cache layer on this level could give very good benchmark.

The possibility to add API on this level could also be "a cool thing".
I.E your suggestion of realtime converting of icon format.

Keep't me awake all night =D

The future looks bright, not microsoft grey.
