Description

Description

In some cases it'll be useful to have global query keys that apps can re-use, thus avoiding hitting the server more often than necessary.

The task: find out what these cases might be (for instance), then come up with a plan of how to implement these keys and probably the fetching apparatus itself.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the example in pull request #249 and identify the cases where reusable global query keys could prevent repeated server requests. Trace the relevant frontend query and fetching patterns, then document an implementation plan for the keys and fetching apparatus. Done means the use cases and plan are agreed, not necessarily implemented.
