Yan Xu commented on MESOS-7753:
-------------------------------

A few things in consideration:

- We cannot simply whitelist {{@0.0.0.0:0}} in MESOS-7401 otherwise the 
protection mechanism is rendered useless. 
- Even though some messages are not supposed to have a "return address", it 
makes sense to always require a non-empty {{from}} address for actor to actor 
communication.
- For non-testing libprocess communication in Mesos it makes sense to assume 
all messages are sent by libprocess actors.

So for this the easiest fix is probably just give the {{LearnedMessage}} a 
sender: define a simple {{RequestProcess}}, in contrast with {{ReqResProcess}}, 
which is used for other replicated log messages.

Of course no attempt has been made in the replicated log to really verify that 
the learned message is sent by a coordinator so this is simply to make the 
replicated log compliant with MESOS-7401.

>  which sets the message's {{from}} field to an empty UPID.
> The rationale for using this form is that there's no intended response for 
> this message. However with MESOS-7401, this message could be rejected.
