+All extension maintainers are encouraged to switch their own caching mechanisms

+ This includes clearing the previous "cache_hash", "cache_pages" and
+ "cache_pagesection", which affects links, TypoScript, fully-cached pages and
+ cached page elements.
+
+ - "Flush all caches" clears all caches inside the groups "all" and "pages"
+ as well as additional database tables registered via hooks in TCEmain. However

+ - "Flush system caches" clears all system-related caches, which is the class
+ loading cache, configuration cache (previously known as temp_CACHED_* files)
+ and some other extbase-related class caches. The symbol is now disabled
+ by default, even for admins, and can be enabled by setting the userTSconfig
+ option "options.clearCache.system=1", and is also always enabled using
+ the Application Context / TYPO3_CONTEXT Environment Option "Development".
+ Additionally, clearing system caches can be done via the Install Tool, they
+ are automatically flushed when an extension is being activated/uninstalled.
+
+All hooks within TCEmain still work as expected. However, the use of
+clear_cacheCmd with the parameter "temp_cached" is discouraged with
+the introduction of the group "system".
