Hhmmm... why not? In your DBIx::Password configuration, you could define
two different virtual users that uses the same connect string, username,
and password. As much as Slash is concerned, they are different
databases, but in fact they update the same tables.

This could expose you to some race conditions because of the
symultaneous (spelling?!) access from two different engines, anyway -
but that's something that needs to be investigated in the code.
