I'm still clarifying this.

Most of yesterday was spent integrating a Request class into the  
indirector, which will provide us the ability to control things like  
this.  That is, we now have a single class that constitutes the entire  
interface for passing information through indirection, and this  
interface will make it easy to support this kind of option.

It certainly seems like something we should do, so I'll think about  
where to add it.

It certainly should be configurable, and the other direction --  
puppetd currently has a --ignorecache option for the catalog, and we'd  
need something similar.
