Comment (by karsten):

 I ''think'' that unit tests are wrong here.  If you grep for "grace_pd" in
 tests.py, you'll find:

 {{{
                                           'node_down_grace_pd' : '',
         self.assertEqual(node_down_sub.grace_pd, 1)
                                           'node_down_grace_pd' : '',
                                           'node_down_grace_pd' : '',
                                           'node_down_grace_pd' : 1,
                                           'node_down_grace_pd' : '',
         self.assertEqual(node_down_sub.grace_pd, 1)
                                           'node_down_grace_pd' : '',
 }}}

 It seems we're setting the node-down grace period to the empty string in
 most cases, but just once to 1 (hour).  But we're asserting that it's 1
 hour in different unit tests than the one where we're setting it to 1.
 I'd say let's remove those two asserts, or change them to 0.  And we might
 want to move one such assert to the unit test where we're actually setting
 a node-down grace period.
