Hm. I don't think that is an entirely valid argumentation. The same user could 
have entirely different databases. They even could have distinct access 
countrol via the clients ip.
I have seen the same cluster being used for prod/test instances at smaller 
shops several times. 

Whether thats a valid usecase I have no idea.
