Shouldn't this be handled by FLUSH itself? MembershipListener.block() 
doesn't provide any information on who the flush coordinator is, so JBC 
has no way to implement Manik's suggestion. But FLUSH itself should know 
enough to detect the view change and trigger an unblock().

BTW, I see that the AS ClusterPartition has the same weakness.
