+        state, but does not know if it has all of the keys of a particular type,
+        which makes wildcard lookups expensive unless we have a complete cache.
+        Hence, if we are doing a wildcard lookup, populate the cache fully so
+        that we can do an efficient lookup next time.
+
+        Note that since we have two caches, one for membership events and one for
+        other events, we can be a bit more clever than simply returning
+        `StateFilter.all()` if `has_wildcards()` is True.
+

+            1. the list of membership events to return is the same
+            2. if there is a wildcard that matches non-member events we
