I've once installed this setup (although it's not yet in production) and 
it seems to work nice in once way i.e. you take care that the backup server
never gets written to unless he's master because replication works only
from master to slave and not the other way around.

The config btw. is quite easy about two lines in every my.cnf and a 
"backup" user with proper rights and that's all.
