Currently there's no API in Kyra to do that. IMHO if you really need to 
cache such accesses, why don't you create an cache in your backend? You 
could overwrite fopen / fclose for that. Or just overwrite 
FSNode::createReadStream directly. If you do that backend wise, all 
engines might profit from it.

If my memory is not totally bad the DS port does something like that.
