a few keywords in your mail hint at the fact you're using AWS? If that's the case, you might want to look into their managed PostgreSQL hosting: it's called Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL and supports failover ("Multi AZ") and master-slave replication ("Read Replicas").
Yes, it's AWS. A few issues with that: lack of master/master support which you've mentioned, and we have longer term plans to use other cloud providers as well - so I'm trying to avoid provider lock-in (whenever it makes sense to do so).
As load balancer, PgPool-II might be what you're looking for.
Would there be any issues if I just used an ELB pointing at two masters? Let's say I use sticky sessions to avoid clients switching masters too much.
