Update to Murder docs (D69) and question on style.

[Nicola Nye]

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.

          Master instance.
