    oops, I thought the purpose of this patch was something else earlier.
    
    Sorry to make you explain this again, but I am not certain I understand 
what is wrong w/ the current behavior.  If we fail to put locally, with the 
current behavior, (1) the block will get replicated anyway (2) the remote peer 
will cache the block in the originally requested storage level if it can (eg., 
it will store the block in memory) since [the replicate request uses the 
original 
`putLevel`](https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/a56516fc9280724db8fdef8e7d109ed7e28e427d/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/storage/BlockManager.scala#L853)
 and (3) the remote node will tell `BlockManagerMaster` that it has the block, 
b/c 
[`putBlockData`](https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/a56516fc9280724db8fdef8e7d109ed7e28e427d/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/storage/BlockManager.scala#L316)
 just calls 
[`putBytes`](https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/a56516fc9280724db8fdef8e7d109ed7e28e427d/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/storage/BlockManager.scala#L676)
 which defaults to `tellMast
 er = true`.
    
    Is my explanation of the current behavior incorrect, or is there something 
wrong w/ the current behavior that I'm not seeing?
