Description

Concurrency settings and rate limits and other advanced preferences could read defaults from master when connecting. I.e. if not explicitly specified on peer node, use values from master.

An open question: how to specify the client settings on master? More command line arguments (effectively double the current ones, hnnngh...), or perhaps just a `--client-defaults` that points to a JSON file with the defaults? Or maybe `--client-opts ""`.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points; start by tracing how master and peer connection settings are parsed and exchanged. Done means clients use master-provided defaults when they do not specify values themselves, with one agreed mechanism for configuring those defaults.
