There goes my hope of keeping directory_entry* in core so that at
write-time, after validation, we only need to recreate some trees
instead of all of them..

Or we could make cache-tree keep references to directory_entry. If a
cache-tree is not invalidated, then the attached directory_tree should
be reused..

Otherwise we do need to free root_directory down to the deepest
subtrees, I think. People have been complaining about read-cache
leaking memory like mad, so this is a real issue. Even if you keep
references in cache-tree, you still need to free it
cache_tree_invalidate_path() to avoid leaking
