Dave, 

Imagine that you want to upgrade one of your 4 sites with a new release of 
reactor, with the mapping you'll have to check all 4 sites for compatibility 
problems. 

When you own those sites and the server instance it's not that bad because 
you're supposed to know what you're doing but I would rather prefer to have 4 
copies of reactor(I do have several copies running) and be able to upgrade one 
app without having to worry about breaking all the others.

João,

Could you clarify that a bit?

We have a dedicated server, with about 4 sites using Reactor that are all
under our control.  Are you suggesting that a mapping would be inappropriate
in that case and we should keep 4 different copies?  We haven't seen any
collisions yet, but I would be interested in hearing the reasoning behind
that.
