Thanks. There might be also a technical issue, because the obvious way
would have been to simply set the DMLCacheFlags property for the
InternalDataset, but this one won't work for the update refresh thingy,
because there is somewhere a check if StatementCountLink is greater 0,
which isn't the case for e.g. a TIBOQuery.

What I have done in the component is exposing the DMLCacheFlags property
to the user *and* added some kind of default handler for the
OnDMLCacheReceivedItem event of the InternalDataset.
