I have to say go ahead. "memcached" (btw, lower case only for the name
in cvs/peclweb :) is also the right name. I do not think there will be
oppositions.
About a driver based extension, it sounds a bit overkilled for the
purpose of these extensions. And there is already many php classes
doing this job very well in userland.
