Out of curiosity, in this specific case, wouldn't revert-buffer (now
conveniently bound to C-x x g) accomplish the same thing? (Clear
caches, while preserving the buffer-local history)
(Not suggesting that this invalidates your use-cases; just trying to
make sure I understand this one)

🤷 I guess someone could use that buffer-local history as a manually
curated version of the mark ring?
