Cache invalidation is a problem with schemes like these, but this particular
site is a good candidate: Most visitors are anonyomus, public pages have no
user-dependent content, and the site isn't too large, so I can afford to
invalidate the entire cache on every modification. That happens by way of a
Symfony event subscriber reacting to Bolt content modificaton events.
