I am working on this problem as well.

At the moment we are thing of doing it by using triggers, but there needs
to be a more general solution.
FYI, Ingres does its replication through database procedures! Yes, you
read that correctly!

Perhaps a great interim step would be to write an auto-generator for
triggers that can be run on a database to create the necessary triggers
to set up datbase replication.
