May the folks from mastercoin answer me about a problem the spec does not address:

x is a saving account with 365 days of reverse
a hacker hacks x and transfers mastercoins to his account
the hacker then spends the coins and these coins are spent again and again
the owner discovers it and reverts.

do you revert all transactions? this seems not possible to me and hardly what we want, because selling with mastercoins becomes risky.

thx!

Hacker can't spend coins on reserve.  They just sit there in the penalty box waiting for the reserve time to expire.

ok, so I have to choose my reverse time carefully because I can't spend my savings in this time interval
