In the last version our approach for new features was to write external gems before integrating to Rails repository. I personally like the idea of having support for master-slave in Rails but in my opinion it should grow up first as a gem.
If the community embrace that gem and it show useful for the most part of application we can integrate it on the Rails repository. This project[1] for example was created as part of the Google Summer of Code project for the Rails organization and have support for master-slave but never was integrated in Rails repository, but in my opinion we don't need to.
