So, what piece(s) of code decides which replica is read from?

Note that even in the single-datacenter case, I'd want to avoid crossing
rack boundaries if my client is in the same rack as one of the possible
OSDs.

Hmm. Too bad; I'd be more than happy with writing to one or two replicas,
and trusting CEPH to manage the rest of the copying in the background.
