 Description   

Description

Any voting data-bearing members in a replica set can contribute to acknowledging majority write concern. This includes hidden and delayed secondaries.

Caveat: delayed secondaries can only acknowledge writes when applied on the secondary (after the delay). They should generally be non-voting.

Blowing this up a little bit in scope to do some sweep and clean on some of the write concern copy.
