Geez, I killed two birds but the third was still blocking. Is there
any way to get an error message out of OSRM when it throws up its
hands and can't find a route? It's pretty easy to move the pins around
and watch a route go from normal to insane. The difficulty is in
determining exactly why. If, for example, OSRM could say "You asked me
for a motor vehicle routing on a way that doesn't permit motor
vehicles", I could have found the problem immediately.

It hasn't fixed the problem yet. That's why we need some way to force
a reload, or tell the user how long they'll have to wait before
checking.

Maybe if you've hit the edit button, that should invalidate your cache?
