I am setting up an Artifactory Pro instance for a client.  They asked me to
setup replication which all seems to work well.  

One thing is an unexpected behavior for me.  Let's say I have two instances. 
I want the following behavior:


Instance1  =>  replicates  => Instance2

This works perfectly when both instances have the same repositories already
created.  let's say now I have a new repository I am creating on Instance1
called "foo".  Let's also say I tell it to replicate over to instance2,
having never setup the repository on instance2.

My *expected* behavior is that Artifactory would not care and would
automatically create the repository if it does not already exist, but it
does not do this.

1.  Is this intended behavior, or have I missed a setup element somewhere?
2.  Is it possible to make this the default behavior?
3.  If this is not currently a feature, could it be requested?

The customer wishes to only work with a single Artifactory instance, all
changes, etc. being replicated out to the secondary instance.  They only
need work with the second instance in the event of a catastrophe on
instance1, changing their DNS pointer to the backup instance when needed. 
In the current observed behavior, every time they create a new repository on
instance1 and set it to replicate, they will also need to connect to
instance2 and create the empty repository before replication will work.

Any insight or help you guys can offer?
