I made this interface way back with the original backend work and I
guess I forgot to hook it up! This is becoming an issue as I'm working
on our 2nd enhanced backend that requires this information and I
realized it was hardcoded before.
This propertly uses the CLIInit interface allowing any backend to gain
access to this data.
During backend initialization, especially during a migration, there is a
chance that an existing state could be overwritten.
Attempt to get a locks when writing the new state. It would be nice to
always have a lock when reading the states, but the recursive structure
of the Meta.Backend config functions makes that quite complex.
