Dridi, I completely agree with your response, except for one thing: IMHO, bans
are in no way less real time than purges: While the ban *lurker* processing is
deferred, actual ban checks at lookup time happen as immediately as whatever
purges.
Other than that, purges act on objectheads ("cache keys") affect all variants
under that cache key. bans are checked per object (variant).
