 Description   

In short if a server is started as --slave the slave status can only be changed by re-starting the process.

Ideally, a shell command would be able to remove slaving status. In the same way a shell command should be able to promote a slave to master.

This feature is particularly useful for switching between master & slaves (which is currently a little dicey).

This is probably not something we're going to do.

For most cases - we think replica sets are the right thing to use which do this automatically.

For manual cases, we want to keep things as simple as possible.
