Great! This change should be the best of both worlds: Sigil's Preview will keep and use local persistent storage and a disk cache for Preview just like normal. Launching the second (or later) instance of Sigil while the first is still running, will use an Off-The-Record cache for its Preview instance to prevent cache file lock contention.

For people who typically use one instance of Sigil at a time there are no real changes.

Thanks for the bug report with instructions to recreate the issue on Windows and all testers.
