Comment(by nickm):

 Hm. My thought would be that an ADDRMAP event would be appropriate,
 perhaps with some new flag to indicate that it wasn't getting cached.  (Or
 we could have an expiry set to some time in the past to indicate that it
 isn't cacheable.)

 The description in control-spec seems unsuitable.

 I wonder how hard this would be to fix in 0.2.4.  If the fix isn't too
 hard, we could put it in there.
