I think you're talking about different things.
MySQL only needs the my.cnf to start a server.
The permissions are stored along the database files (If i remember well), which is a separate problem. 1) It's only configured once on the master 2) Uber says that they don't reuse volumes [which implies many other consequences and special management around that].
By the way, Chef/Puppet/Ansible have build-in commands to manage that as well.
