Temporary server problems can cause errors in rendering of images and math; the cached entries then sit around for hours/days/weeks, and people whine about them long after the problem is solved. It would be valuable if such errors could set a flag on the ParserOutput object for an early cache expiration. (Some limited time, rather than no caching at all, is probably wise to limit load during the problem period.)

I guess this request is still valid - see e.g. bug 61041 for a recent Math example.
