> Repair coordination makes a few assumptions about message delivery which 
> cause it to hang forever when those assumptions don’t hold true: fire and 
> forget will not get rejected (participate has an issue and rejects the 
> message), and a very delayed message will one day be seen (messaging can be 
> dropped under load or when failure detector thinks a node is bad but is just 
> GCing).
> Given this and the desire to have better observability with repair (see 
> CASSANDRA-15399), coordination should be changed into a request/response 
> pattern (with retries) and polling (validation status and MerkleTree 
> sending).  This would allow the coordinator to detect changes in state (it 
> was known participate was working on validation, but it no longer knows about 
> the validation task), and to be able to recover from ephemeral issues.
