Exactly.

This idea is totally right. But we have already implemented it. When the
master exists and is still in its lease, if some other one wants to be
the master and sent the "prepare" message, the acceptor will told him
"oh, we have already had a master" by setting "hdr->leased = 1" in his
respond message, actually this is a rejection, then the one trying to be
master won't succeed.

It seems your patch is also doing this, right?

Thanks,
Jiaju
