Justin,

Thanks for much for the code sample. 

First of all let me say that I think I will have no more than 2 nodes at 
first.

I think I was referring exactly to what you did but yours is much smarter. 
The workaround I had in mind was to just "down" the unreachable member and 
that´s all.
In my case two different clusters wouldn't be created in a network 
partition scenario so split brain wouldn´t be a concern, because I am not 
going to use the auto-down config.

Today I was playing with two laptops each node forming cluster and I 
realized that when auto-down is not specified and I turn off the wi-fi for 
one of those nodes, one of them become Unreachable and that´s it, but split 
brain is not a concern. It just requires a human to manually Down the 
crashed node.
That's why I just wanted to self destruct the unreachable node instead of 
doing it manually.

On the other hand if I setup auto-down, for the same scenario the brain is 
splitted and so two clusters are created and so I am screwed.

Am I in the right direction? I was thinking more in a server that crashes 
more than a vertical network partition affecting many nodes...

Regards,
Sebastian.
