That would be splendid. As you rightly guessed, one of my primary
concerns was that crm_mon does in fact not indicate the syncing state of
DRBD, currently.

Right - I hadn't thought this through.

It's good to know that it's possible to engineer another safe-guard
against this problem. Seeing as enough care during manual interventions
will keep us save, this issue is settled from my point of view. An
enhanced RA would be appreciated, of course.
