Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.#412518: Convert taxonomy_node_* related code to use field API + upgrade path adds a new {forum_index} table which demormalizes data needed for common forum queries. The current implementation only indexes on node_save()/comment_save(), however in the case that the forum_nav_vocabulary changes in the lifetime of a site (side note, does this ever happen?), or that forum module is disabled then re-enabled, it's possible that the index gets out of sync. So before release we'll need to add a cron indexer, same principle as the one in tracker.module, which handles rebuilding that table in those cases.

catchThis isn't hypothetical, while most people won't run into it, it's definitely an issue in the implementation.
