Seeing thousands of files in CacheRoot that look like

This clearly seems like a bug. Could this somehow be
a feature? I just can't imagine what purpose it would serve.

Why do you think this is a bug?
It looks like a temporary file name to me. I don't know the
implementation details of the particular cache module you are using,
but I would suspect that it uses unique temporary file names to store
cached content to ensure that there is a unique name for each cached
item. It really would make no sense to cache a file under its "real"
name if there are multiple files with that name in multiple places
under the document root.
An example where this would apply is a very common situation where
you would have an index.html file under every subdirectory in your
document hierarchy. By giving each cached file a unique name and
mapping the unique file name to the URI, the cache module will serve
the right one from the cached content.
