Sebastian suggests that we revise the schedule for consensus voting such that there's a cutoff after which we discard votes from the original authority. So phase 1a is to publish your vote to every authority, phase 1b is to ask every authority for votes you're missing, and during phase 1b we won't accept phase 1a votes.

The goal here is to avoid consensus failures that occur when an authority uploads a vote during phase 1b, and some authorities end up thinking everybody knows it, yet some don't know it.
