[snip]

Many shared hosting providers don't include the username / password in the
DSN definition in the CF Admin (forcing you to use them in your
code) because that would allow anyone with a hosting account to
theoretically access another one of their client's databases by guessing the
DSN. Which could be a particularly dangerous thing if the DSN names happen
to be formulaic.
