I'd be a bit leery of this. While it's a common practice to use action=purge to
force a re-render of pages when they are being cached, I'm not sure it's
something we should *promote* the use of. In theory, when things change how a
page is rendered, it should be updated. When it doesn't, that is a bug.
Promoting people to use action=purge will make people more likely to just purge
the cache and forget why it didn't show up right to begin with.
In short: purge is a dirty hack around what should be happening automatically,
and we shouldn't be encouraging its use (even though it's very helpful to
have).
