We recently hit a similar case in our production environment. What was
annoying about it is that there didn't seem to be a way for the
application to fix the issue by itself, short of reconnecting; even
DISCARD ALL doesn't help. If we can't fix the underlying issue, can we
at least provide a way for apps to invalidate these caches themselves,
for example in the form of a DISCARD option?
