Doy! Yes, of course, that would almost certainly do it. I will try that next
time the situation arises. A most excellent suggestion.
It would still be nice, assuming that this works, though, to have a command to
do only this; indeed, it seems to me that sync (just once) *should* be
interpretted to perform this function if there isn't an explicit way to do
it.

No, I think that I was the one who was missing something.
