So:

node-2 fails, group-2 moves to node-4
node-2 returns
node-1 fails, group-1 moves to node-2

and no admin intervention in between.


The more common use of N+1 is where the +1 is a shared failover.  
So resources are only moving between their primary node and the +1.

I probably could make your use-case work, but its unlikely to happen for 1.1.12

I've filed it as a feature request for future reference:
