IMHO the recently introduced warning is a sufficient solution for this issue. Will test it and if it works I suggest closing this issue.

What options do we have to handle this?

• stop storing geocache data, might be safe, but maybe not what the user would expect
• fallback to other storage location:
  • usage in parallel, might complicate our storage logic
  • move data to other and continue there, might be risky, too

I think the best thing is to stop and let the user take action. Cleanup or move to another storage location manually.
