Description

> It was used to ensure that when root reports that the initial conditions have been set, all ranks have reached this point.
> What could be a good way to replicate such a behavior in Taal? If we don't have a good answer right now, we should create an issue for it, since this is something I have relied on frequently in the past to debug MPI runs.
