Comment (by r-a-y):

 Good catch, wpdennis.

 The one concern I have is sites using a WP multi-network with BuddyPress
 via a plugin like BP Multi-Network or BuddyPress Multi-Network.  Not many
 people are using WP multi-networks with BuddyPress (I know I haven't!),
 but for those that are, this would probably cause tons of cache issues.

 We could probably refactor the existing `bp_core_add_global_group()`
 function to add the additional cache groups and add a filter to bail out
 of registering these groups if necessary.

 Would need some testing with one or both of those BP multi-network
 plugins.
