One way is to do for read_index_from() what you did for the existing
users of read_cache_from(). Introduce a _new_ helper that will not
be known for any existing topics in flight, and use that to make the
existing API a thin wrapper around it.
I _think_ I got it right with evil merge, so unless this fix needs
to be delayed for extended period of time for whatever reason while
any more new callers of the function appears (which is unlikely), we
should be OK ;-)
Thanks.
