> The plugins that produce attributes report the set of names they produce so the header clearing code can use them, but if the set of names changes due to refresh of a config file, the surrounding code doesn't know about it in order to update the names cached.
> We might be able to mitigate it by always pulling the names in real time because the names are cached on the inproc side anyway.
> If we can't fix it well enough, the default config can mark relevant configs as unmonitored for changes.
