Automation Caching

Is there any way of caching parts of a build with Space Automation?

I.e.

1. Could I cache a node_modules directory somewhere for re-use in builds?
2. Could I use --cache-from when building a docker image using the Kotlin DSL?

Docker --cache-from (after pulling an image) would be immensely useful in a lot of ways. Any process that takes time could be cached based on the input, e.g. installing packages, composer, bundler, npm, compiling dependencies.

Directly caching files such as node_modules could similarly be useful, and might result in pulling fewer docker images. e.g. Gitlab CI

For docker cache in Gitlab, I currently use a script like the below:

image: docker:git
services:
- docker:dind

stages:
- build

variables:
  CONTAINER_IMAGE: registry.gitlab.com/$CI_PROJECT_PATH

before_script:
  - docker login -u gitlab-ci-token -p $CI_BUILD_TOKEN registry.gitlab.com

build:
  stage: build
  script:
    - docker pull $CONTAINER_IMAGE:latest || true #To use for cache
    - docker build --build-arg BUILD_NUMBER=$CI_COMMIT_TAG --cache-from $CONTAINER_IMAGE:latest -t $CONTAINER_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_TAG -t $CONTAINER_IMAGE:latest .
    - docker push $CONTAINER_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_TAG
    - docker push $CONTAINER_IMAGE:latest
  only:
    - tags
