If people on core had come to the idea that we needed to build in replication *before* 8.3 came out, they certainly didn't announce it. Now is a great time to mention this because it gives everybody time to: 1. Come to a consensus on what the out-of-the-box replication should be, and 2. Build, test and debug whatever the consensus out-of-the-box replication turns out to be.
