AFAICS there's no way of specifying table name in the "hide
mysql_servers" part. However, I've set up a separate database to stick the
table in that needs to be written to, on the master. And I've named it
inside the sql query it's self. It seems to work. Not ideal, but it's a
starting point.

Eg:

INSERT INTO newDBonMaster.table SET blah;
