Hi,

I've just spent a few evenings writing a connection pool for OrientGraph 
instances <https://github.com/skwidge/OdbResource/releases>. It has become 
clear that it is never going to be very good if it only sits on the outside 
of the public API.

Essentially I want to add a feature to the OrientDB authentication model. 
At the moment you have to pass in your credentials when you construct an 
OrientGraph instance, and it uses the same credentials for the lifetime of 
that instance. I would like to be able to cheaply associate a new set of 
credentials with an existing OrientGraph instance to facilitate connection 
pooling.

This could allow developers to leverage the record level security model for 
all users of a web application if it were backed by an OrientDB database.

I've written up a discussion of the ideas 
<http://skwidge.github.io/OdbResource/doc/whitepaper.html> as well as the 
proof of concept connection pool 
<https://github.com/skwidge/OdbResource/releases>.

I would be interested to know, do other people see value in this idea? I 
would love to try to implement a patch to allow this, but I'm not sure yet 
if it would get support from Orient Technologies or the community.

CHrs,
Bruce
