I don't see key_name, matrix_name in the definition above? (But I do see
it below in the implementation).

Yikes. I like this addition but I'm a little bit worried here.

Imagine some changing light scene causes us to generate 'every' possible
light colour temperature. This would consume a potentially large amount
of memory. Particularly if this was interpolating LSC tables.

The cache_ needs to be limited in size ideally as some form of LRU.

I assumed we'd just keep a single cached Matrix originally (which I
guess is an LRU of size 1...) , but if it's worth adding multiple
then I think it needs some limits already.


As I asked for the cache, I don't mind if it's removed if that's easier
for the short term and added in on top with an LRU, or changed to store
only a single cached ct, or an LRU is implemented.


Otherwise, everything else looks fine to me.
