No, and we won't as part of CEP-14, however we will _test_ both (which is
functionally equivalent). We will only do this for clarity, not because it is
necessary for correctness.

> I was going through this blog post , which talks about a possible bug in
> paxos implementation if in-progress ballot is not set while accepting a
> proposal.

> I tried writing a failing test and possible fix.
