RemarksConsumers should be able to treat an IDateTimeZoneProvider like a cache: lookups should be quick (after at most one lookup of a given ID), and the data for a given ID should always be the same (even if the specific instance returned is not). Consumers should not feel the need to cache data accessed through this interface.
Implementations designed to work with any IDateTimeZoneSource implementation (such as DateTimeZoneCache) should not attempt to handle exceptions thrown by the source. A source-specific provider may do so, as it has more detailed knowledge of what can go wrong and how it can best be handled.
