Yes it does, because reads just use getReadStorageEndPoints, which correctly 
ignores bootstrap-in-progress.  

determineBlockFor just says "given a set of nodes we're writing [or reading, 
but actually read just hardcodes N / 2 + 1 right now] to, how many do we need 
to form a quorum."  So you'd control it by giving it the right set of nodes to 
reason about.

Sorry about that -- trunk has moved a bunch since that was generated.
