This indicates an inconsitency between an index and
the set of catalogued objects.

When you have a good indication, which index contains the
inconsistency, you can just "reindex" this index.
This may be significantly faster then reindexing the complete
catalog. Moreover, conflict probability might be (slightly) smaller.
