Hi Nic,
Would love it if you wanted to write up murderous replication.
And hey, failover too, in the non-murdery/murdery replication scenarios.
I'm sure there's more than one way to implement it, but it would be
great to have a starting point in the docs.

I can write this up, I just wasn't sure if it was still needed. I
put a big ol' Note: in the replication page saying:

Master instance.
