This looks much better then the previous version! Good job!

    Is a fifo cache really what you'd want here? I think you would want a LRU cache instead.. But yeah, that adds quite a bit complexity.

Hugo noted there were many other similar usages, and boy he wasn't kidding! ;) The long story short is that these usages can theoretically cause use-after-free behavior (which can lead to crashes and even undefined behavior if the compiler ever gets smart).

For QColor we return references to values so we *must* return pointers, and those have to be owned by a QCache to avoid memleaks. So I added a helper function to loop until the cache accepts the new entry. TileSets are a similar concern, except those have manual loops since I was uncertain about whether TileSet's copy constructor was the best idea or not.
