Actually, I have something partially prototyped to do "simple IP
tiebreaker" sort of thing like this.  It's based on what we had in
clumanager a few years ago, and only works in limited cases (i.e. 2 node
clusters).

It kind of plugs in the same way as qdiskd but is far simpler (and, of
course, doesn't require a disk).  I could finish up pretty quickly if
you cared to test it.
