No sure, we can block I guess, and wait for a latch to open, huh? No,
no view and unblocked are ordered by sender, no problem there. It is a
message from a third member that is the problem. It can squeeze in
between view and unblock on member C.
I do *not* think a message from a member can squeeze in *before* a VIEW
because view installation is synchronous. However, you're right, a
message can squeeze in after a VIEW and before an unblock() is received.
But IMO that's fine I guess. Or do you see any issues here ?
