shaolinfry,

Not sure if you noticed my comments on your earlier orphaning proposal... but 
if you did you should already know that I really like this proposal... 
particularly since orphaning valid old blocks is completely unnecessary.

I really like how you pulled out the "lockinontimeout" variable so that this 
same method could be used in future softfork proposals... instead of hardcoding 
a special case hack for SegWit.

- it would be nice if the user could set this variable in a configuration file.
- it would be nice if the user could set the "nTimeout" in 
"src/chainparams.cpp" in a configuratoin file too. This could be used allow a 
user to expedite when a softfork would become active on his node when combined 
with ."lockinontimeout".

Developers such as the Core team could put more conservative values in the 
program, and then community members such as miners and nodes who feel more 
strongly about SegWit could either compile their own settings or maybe copy a 
popular configuration file if such was made possible.

Cheers,
Praxeology Guy
