Gary Dusbabek commented on CASSANDRA-1451:
------------------------------------------

An approach:

More cleanly: introduce a gossip state in conjunction with 
ApplicationState.STATUS that basically proclaims "I'm up, but stop routing 
requests to me."  (e.g.: see StorageService.startLeaving()).  But then you'd be 
at the mercy of relying on when that information makes it to every node.  We 
might already have a such a state, but it doesn't imply these semantics.

Even more cleanly: When a node is in that state and it receives a request from 
another node that doesn't know it, have send a message that politely explains 
the situation and "please stop sending me requests."  Ideally, this would be 
done by forcing a gossip to the node that doesn't know the leaving node doesn't 
want requests (as opposed to creating a new message, verb handler, etc.).
