No... the labeling is not cached anywhere. Therefore in every rendering job
it is necessary to register all features that may have labels again in
order to be considered in the labeling.

Also think about this case: there is one layer with labeling, it gets
cached. Then user adds another layer with labels - it is necessary to
recalculate the labeling again as the new layer may require some existing
labels to be hidden or moved to a different position to fit labels from the
new layer. Hopefully that makes sense :-)
