   Can you please provide more details on the reasons behind this change? What 
specific situations or scenarios require introduction of these zones? 
Personally, I would prefer to initiate a discussion via email with members of 
the community first in order to gain a better understanding of the problem and 
to establish a broad consensus on the solution before proceeding with 
implementation.

> I have the following use case: a CI pipeline with a compile step *then* 
> multiple parallelized test steps. Tests are split in 3 groups. Each test 
> group execution specify the group via maven-surefire-plugin:test property 
> 'groups'.
> Maven phase for compilation: process-test-classes
> Maven phase for tests: verify
> The compilation should use remote cache as much as possible and end up 
> populating it.
> Each test execution should either use the populated cache ending with 
> process-test-classes phase or a cache representing the result of the 
> execution of the current test group (value for 'groups').
> The issue I have is that this extension can only store a single cache entry 
> per input checksum. But I need to persist the build result of each test group.
> The easiest solution I can think of is having 4 cache zones. The first for 
> the compile phase (the default zone), the 3 remaining for each test group. 
> I need the compile phase to read/write from/to the default cache zone. 
> I need each test group to read from its own cache zone then the default cache 
> zone, *in this order*. At the end, it should write to its own cache zone.
