I wrote attached patch (so that i would understand what code actually does)

and found myself while refactoring also doing a change, namely that

i removed the check for server_id in a couple of places.

it still passes all tests...

could you comment on this, or write(outline) a testcase that fails with my patch.

i think functionality that i might have removed would be if you write have 2 mysqld M1 & M2

and your replicate both way...and you *don't* use domain_id...and you write concurrently on both

mysqld (but maybe disjoint data ??).

feedback/comments appreciated.
