I want to be able to cache various pages, all called index.php but
have various GET parameters for example like...

index.php?a=1

index.php?a=2&b=3

index.php?a=1&b=2&c=4

Can I store these the strings of GET parameters as the cache_id's to
cache the various permutations of pages? (something like... cache_id =
"a=1&b=2&c=4")

It's worth remembering that
index.php?a=2&b=3
is the same page as
index.php?b=3&a=2
and may also be the same as
index.php?b=3&a=2&c=1
... if c defaults to 1 in your code, but they'll all be cached separately
by this method.

This may not matter to you, of-course, but if it does a more
sophisticated (application specific) cache ID generator is needed. We
parse all passed parameters into a "$params" array which also includes
default values; we then ksort, serialize and hash the result to get an ID.
