I wonder whether we need to do something special to the new-secondary; consider this: 1 primary (P1) & secondary (S1) run together 2 New connection opened 3 secondary records an offset 4 <running OK for a while - no checkpoint> 5 primary (P1) fails; do failover to secondary 6 secondary (S1) still rewrites sequence for connection opened at (2) 7 Start new-secondary (S2), send checkpoint from S1->S2 8 S2 has same guest contents as S1; so the sequence numbers are still offset compared to the outside world. So S2 needs to be sent the offsets for existing connections, otherwise is S1 was then to fail, S2 would send the wrong output on the existing connection?
