Konstantin, I have gone through HDFS-2064. Our idea of Standby Namenode matches 
with your proposal. I went through the patch you have submitted also, it is in 
line with our implementation. 

We have tested our solution thoroughly and already deployed in production. We 
would like to share the challenges we faced & improvements we made to Backup 
Node. It will be great for us to work together with you on this.

See HDFS-2064. Is it similar to what you have in mind?
