Since there is currently no support at all, I think it's important to get something usable first, and worry about those other cases later.
The other alternative, which is much simpler to implement, is just to add a suffixmassage/rewrite keyword to the syncrepl config, allowing it to pull from a particular remote base and map it to the local base. Then it's up to the sysadmin to create a complete cn=config hierarchy somewhere else on the master server and let the slaves pick it up. That would address all of the issues of differentiation, at the cost of a little bit of redundancy on the master.
