We've had our share of fun ourselves by now, especially with the
event-stream module being hijacked and removed. To my knowledge none of
the existing nodejs package managers (npm, yarn, ...) do support pure
fetching neither explicit caching. The only thing that seems to be
mostly working fine is using an explicit caching proxy like lazy-npm to
externally cache the remote repositories.
