Research direction

Reproduce the problem by sleeping and resuming the laptop, then running ls on the nonexistent /keybase/public/marcopolo directory. Use log id c7a28d51c724fc4c66d06b1c while investigating KBFS wireless disconnect and reconnect handling. Done means this lookup no longer hangs after reconnecting.
