Comment (by julien):

 Users who intentionally let threads live and create new connections after
 the test database is supposedly destroyed are really asking for trouble
 and are likely already affecting their production database :)
 So in my opinion this change would be backwards compatible, at least in
 the general case. However, if some users come up with genuine use cases
 then we could consider wrapping this new behaviour into a `TestCase`
 method so that one can modify it to their heart's content.
