Oh I agree, that was partly my point though; while this proposal may leave us 
with the "un-Swifty" issue of being unable to explicitly handle invalidation, 
it should be possible to solve that later, i.e- this proposal does’t make us 
any more vulnerable to that problem than we are now, but I definitely agree 
that we could do with some kind of invalidation mechanism in future that 
developers can actually implement or respond to. I guess I was more thinking 
out loud about whether the problem affects the proposal or not, but I don’t 
think that solving it will place any restrictions on the API as proposed, 
definitely deserves a proposal of its own once the new indexing system is in 
place though!
