Curious: I've not tested, but the way the example INI looks like it's possible to add multiple paths. What happens if you put paths from two different OSes in? It seems like a plausible use case (e.g. dual-booters, though I'm not sure how many of them use FFF so it may be another corner).

Actually I'll test what happens if you put in the wrong path type.

EDIT:

Commenting out my existing cache, adding a Linux-type path and using the cache override resulted in a Directory does not contain a known browser cache type: 'C:\home\youruser\.cache\google-chrome\Default\Cache.

Uncommenting my existing cache unfortunately still tried to use the Linux one (Windows one was first in the list, if needed for replication) and failed since it didn't exist—unsure whether it only supports one path, or just gave up after seeing one path didn't contain a cache.

Also, in the zip file I found a \fanficfare\browsercache\basebrowsercache.py-compress-fail-save that's around a day older than the basebrowsercache.py. From the extension I suspect it might be a leftover.
