/**
 * The idea of the RefreshableCachedObject is that, rather than removing items
 * from the cache when they become stale, we'll tell them to refresh themselves
 * instead. That way they'll always be in the cache, and the code to refresh
 * them will be run by the background thread rather than by a user request
 * thread. You can also set a TTL (Time To Live) for the object. This way, if
 * the object hasn't been touched for the TTL period, then it will be removed
 * from the cache.
 *
 * This extends CachedObject and provides a method for refreshing the cached
 * object, and resetting its expire time.
