   A quick note: evidently (haven't seen this myself, but was told that this is possible and been observed) the same range view shards on different nodes can have different `update_seq`. Since `update_seq` is a part of signature used to generate local etags it could lead to fluctuating etags based on what node responded first. :(
   
   Need to reproduce this first and then ponder how signature can be changed to be consistent across nodes, but still be unique for a given request context to be useful for etag generation.
