The idea is to provide a more generalized key-value store that other applications built on top of pacemaker can use. Something like a HTTP REST API to a key-value store with transactional semantics provided by the cluster. My understanding so far is that the CIB is too heavy to support that kind of functionality well, and besides that the interface is not convenient for non-cluster applications. My most immediate applications for that would be to build file syncing into the cluster and to avoid having to have an extra communication layer for the UI.
