How do you configure remote KV store on Universal Forwarder?

I have an application which uses the KV store to store the application's state. When installing it on a universal forwarder, I get errors saying "HTTP 503 Service Unavailable -- KV Store status is unknown"
I understand that there is no support for local KV stores on universal forwarders. However, is there any mechanism available which allows us to force queries to a remote KV store?
I tried editing the server.conf file with the following, but it didn't appear to have any effect:
[kvstore]

There's no way to do that. The performance of the kvstore comes from it being a local, in-memory data store. Reaching across the network to another server would kill the performance.
If you really need a kvstore, use a heavy forwarder instead of a universal forwarder.
