Thank you for filing this idea. It is a MicroStation-related topic, as mentioned by you. The following items have already been filed about filled visible edges in cached view:
Product Backlog Item 715345: [PP Dependency] Shape fill became invisible in Cached view
Bug 886171: [PP Dependency] Fill is disappearing in cached mode when the display style is set to Filled Hidden Line: Modelling
We are in contact with the MicroStation team and will let you know about any progress.

I understand that this is more of a Mstn platform function. The OBD dev team has more input on the cut plane. I think this for OBD's Building Views / Rules annotation etc.
