When tx commits (second phase) it multicasts the commit message to all the lock owners_including_  B (all the owners == {A, B, D}). When CommitCOmmand is received,  B checks weather or not it still is an data owner for each key: if it is the it applies it, otherwise it removes it.
I like your solution. It seems to be less disruptive to ongoing 
transactions then the other two solutions.

How would you safely detect that K is locked by another tx and thus skip 
locking?
