You just need to add the default option after all the votes expressed,
and then you don't care about the ranking of the other options.

So a choice of A, B, C and D being the default option, a vote of A only,
could be interpreted as ADBC, and a vote of CB as CBDA.

Or did i misunderstand something, and this is not the same condorcet we
overdiscussed on the debian-vote list all this past time ?
