Since the client drops the flag before death, we can track the last used flag and see if it's landed yet, if not it was held a very short time before death and probably the one they were killed with.
This allows the API for flag on death to be created before 2.6.
Once the protocol is fixed, this will continue to work and the last held flag can be removed if it isn't needed by anything else.
@allejo should validate that this solves his issues.
