Is that an argument for having the cache layer provide the service for
you?  Apps that care about end-to-end semantics aren't likely to be
going through the cache layer anyways.  Do we need differentiation
between "I don't care" clunks and "I care" clunks?  What's the actual
spread of these in applications?  Am I oversimplifying?  That's quite
possible.
