You mean "generic" as in a replication system that can do asynchronous 
master-slave, asynchronous multimaster with conflict resolution based on 
timestamps, system priority or user defined resolution stubs, can do 
synchronous predicate locking but also does support thousands of 
asynchronous, partial replica (salesman on the road), and last but not 
least can run as a synchronous cluster in a LAN segment. All the above 
can of course be mixed together ... like a central cluster of 8 load 
balanced, fault tolerant systems, with async multimaster replica in all 
external branch servers, partial multimaster replica for the road 
warriers and some slave leaf nodes for reporting.

If you can present a prototype for the above, I am sure that we will 
change our opinion and finally settle for one, builtin replication system.

What specification?
