I can go either way. If you feel strongly, I can take it out, but it basically leaves the original function that makes this call more intact and is self documenting in that context. I originally did not do this, but when I did the typo fix, this had nagged me. But there are similar one line functions in the file (https://github.com/mdsol/rack-cache/blob/78005c292fca5aa682b05c70aef8386b2570f965/lib/rack/cache/context.rb#L328-L330), so I decided to go with it. So, @mszenher or @clabrunda please merge if that satisfies you.
