> Always send an address list PLUS a bit flag that indicates how to
> interpret the list.  If the flag is 0, interpret the list as a target
> list.  If the flag is 1, interpret the list as an exclusion list.
> When a target list is specified for an rpc, compare the size of the
> membership list with the target list.  If (target * 2) <= membership,
> send list with exclusion flag = 0.  If (target * 2) > membership, send
> set difference between membership and target list with exclusion flag =
> 1.  On the receiving end, if exclusion flag is 0, handle the message if
> we're in the list of addresses; if exclusion flag is 1, handle the
> message if we're NOT in the list of addresses.
> A rpc with a null target list would always use a exclusion flag of 1,
> exclude nothing.
> Even better, add new RpcDispatcher/MessageDispatcher methods to invoke
> on all except a list of addresses.  This way, jgroups doesn't need to do
> anything "clever" - but always send list + bit flag in accordance with
> API.
