Hmm, I don't see one either. Odd, we've sure discussed it often enough.
How about

* Flush cached query plans when their underlying catalog data changes

Probably belongs under "DEPENDENCY CHECKING".

I don't consider this urgent or even likely ever to happen, and
I certainly have not taken responsibility to do it.
