--recursion method replica

Registered by Daniel Nichter

From bug 1176140:

I have a complex replication layout and would like nagios checks on replication health. I would like to be able to tell pt-table-checksum to check the slave's checksums with a specific master, not letting it figure it out. I would also like this to be set via the cli, rather then via a table.

I purpose:
--recursion-method replica=DSN

and it will not scan for other replicas then the one(s?) given.
