Cache update requirements

I just spent three days figuring out a problem related to Woocommerce where many of my products were broken with caching turned on.
They (Woocommerce) figured out that the cache needed to be “cleared” due to some change that had occurred.

Not having knowingly made any changes it occurred to me that IF any change to WP Super Cache settings are made that might require such a “clearing” the user should be notified. Or the clearing should occur automatically as part of that change in settings.

For someone who is a web designer/programmer this behavior and knowledge of what might drive the “clearing” requirement or how these setting changes might have occurred is probably more obvious.

But, I am just a user of this plugin that has no knowledge at all how these things actually work, so this seems like a design oversight to an ignorant user such as myself.
Tank you,
