This recent PR #3196 added the ability to retry submitting a transaction if the nonce was incorrect. The problem however is that we are trusting the consensus node that we are submitting the transaction to. They could simply lie and manipulate the client to sign the same transaction several times and by doing so, bypass replay protection. The client should actually request a proof of the state of their account and verify it.
