No, I think this is a good idea. The algorithm should check if SEQUENCER 
is present in the stack, and insert a new instance at startup if not, 
otherwise no-op.

This is only for *replication*, correct ? For *distribution*, the 
CloudTM folks will send us a different total order protocol (TOM) 
soon... but the same mechanism can be applied.
