Given the global nature of the cache invalidation, it may be better as a module level abc.getcachetoken() function. Well, since the only reason to ever use it is to improve performance, it'd be better to expose it as an attribute than as a function. ;-)

A single function call is hardly in the same league as arbitrary traversal of the object graph.

Cheers, Nick.
