That, I don't know, but MySQL's internal replication mechanisms definitely
don't support multimaster slaves. If mmm does it, it'll likely be akin to
the offline log shipping I proposed earlier.

Purely with federated tables, you're not actually replicating. You'd have
the data visible on the "slave", but it would be useless for
failover/backup; and it would be less than optimal for querying since you'll
be pulling all the data off the primaries on every select anyway.
