It probably does this to keep it simple. If the pooled connection had to
keep logging to different accounts for each of its connection it would have
to keep track of where it was and which connection used which account. This
would likely slow it down and open an attach vector that could be exploited.

Not impossible to do - but may not be a good risk vs. return for Rocket. At
least until we can get more vendors to host multi-customer based servers.

That always seemed just "/*wrong*/" to me!  I could never figure out why 
a connection pool license would work this way.  Sure puts a crimp on a 
number of potentialities.  :-)
