ocf:pacemaker:ping works, but takes approx. 25-30s to react at all, and
approx. 40s to complete the failover. But I need an immediate failover,
exactly as it worked ages ago with heartbeat-2 and ipfail.

Good point, but this requirement is customer-driven. I have the cluster to
initiate a failover as quickly as possible within the test cases.
I have a working setup with ocf:pacemaker:ping, but this was rejected as being
"too slow".

I just checked the redhat cluster suite: the ip.sh RA there has a monitor_link
option, which does exactly what my ifstatus RA does.
Maybe this functionality could be added to the IPaddr2 script, but I guess
that wouldn't have more chances of being added than this one, correct?
