I would hope that it's manipulable, how would it be an useful library,
if it cannot be used?  Also, the notion of ‘framework’ is rather vague.

Given the mentioning of various caching strategies, WDYT of:

  (synopsis
    "Customisable memoization library supporting automatic removal")

AFAICT, usually, memoization is presented without any automatical removal, instead
old entries are preserved forever -- that's (one of the) the difference(s) between
memoization and caching.

Greetings,
Maxime.
