So, I've got a block on my site (pardon the mess, I just upgraded from 1.2.5 to 1.3.5) that lists the songs playing from a friend's web radio. The problem is that, as GL tends to cache a RSS block for at least 5 minutes (I think), it's almost always out of date.

Said friend wrote a quick hack (3 lines changed and 1 column added to the DCool to allow all the block timeouts to be customizable with a default value. It is by no means pretty to maintain (have to manually edit the database), but it works. Is this something that you GL developers want?
