I believe David Carter has been working on some stuff for this which is lined up to go in soon. We just have a monitor_sync script that runs every 10 minutes from cron and can recover from this and a variety of other interesting situations. Yeah - it would be nice to have a way to tell the master "going down now, be back later".
