I think we shouldn't invalidate such votes. Everyone who is active and
becomes inactive (or inactive and becomes active) during the voting
period has to login into the AUR, click on a link in the navigation bar,
uncheck a checkbox and click on a button. I don't see why they shouldn't
be able to click another two links and another button :)

Sounds good to me. Any other opinions?
