that machinery is only needed for a module that needs to be used within web2py, as cache and session need (and should) use a single object per class with namespaced keys. Also, there's really no point or any performance benefit on using separate databases in redis, and they're unofficially deprecated because they're not working reallty fine with the new redis cluster. it's far better to namespace your keys.
tl;dr: no, RConn() wasn't made with databases preselection in mind, mostly because there's no need to.
