Sure, see also the discussion I am just having with Xinwei regarding NFS
fail-/switch-over.

That should be integrated, but the connection state replication / tickle
is new functionality we need to add, and also neatly integrate with
IPaddr fail-over, cluster alias, and portblock - and then some hooks
into the RAs to define when a specific IP/port should be switched from
"passive" to "active".
