Generic question:

When the quorum detects mismatch but there was still a majority, is
there a way to request that the quorum correct the odd man out?  That
is, if I have a 2/3 quorum, and files A and B read '1' while C reads
'2', can the mere act of reading that sector be used to write '1' into C?

Obviously, this should be an optional mode, not enabled by default; but
I could envision creating a self-healing redundant array via this method.
