I think the rule for what version of a transaction will be included in blocks has to be something like "the one that pays miners most OR the one that pays miners first (if there are several with the same fee)." @p{par} So I think a scheme where transaction fees are increased, or lock times are decreased, with every transaction replacement is the right way to go. @p{brk}
