This is actually a good question, I think we want to keep it in the main
database, but to be forward looking, we should set the basedn of the
configuration (per topology) in the topology plugin configuration entry,
this way if it turns out we should move it in their own dbs we can just
do it.

The other issue is the list of masters though. I do not want to move
them in the topology tree (breaks compatibility) nor duplicate those
entries if possible, but we may need to do it or also configure where
the "nodes" are stored.

Simo.
