I'd be interested to hear any case studies of how this has been handled
in other OS projects with master/slave namings if anyone can give examples?
Sure it's easy to reasearch, just use 'master-slave' in your search
strings. Here is a good place to start:

Strong -1 for changing the name (either master or slave).
From a community stand point, if dev resources are diverted to renaming
efforts, then the community and the user base both lose meaningful
functionality that isn't being worked on.
From a using organization stand point, as well as framework developer
perspective, I follow mesos releases pretty closely, and I'm confident
that the version that deprecates backward compatibility with the current
names will be a version I will not be able to adopt for months, if at all...
So please don't do that, or if you do, consider leaving in a
configuration option to keep the current names for sane upgrades.
