For theming (in a separate, larger branch), we need to be able to change the lookup directories dynamically (for testing now, for multi-tenancy later). When that happens, the mapping from uri ("footer.html") to actual file can change, which is the whole point of changing the lookup directories.
To make it work properly, we have to cache the files in a different directory for different lookup paths, and clear the internal caches so that the files will be examined again.
