Whatever the problem was with forced re-render, it seems fixed now.
As you've noticed yourself, a problem with scheduled re-renders or more 
accurate, the lack thereof, remains. The area is still showing alignment 
issues, grey tiles still start to show at zoom level 17, 18.
Hopefully that gets solved too, as I'm not eager to manually 
force-render a few hundred or even thousand map tiles.
