IIUC it would only be broken for cases where activity was going on
concurrently in two different databases, which maybe isn't all that
common out in the field.  And for sure it isn't something we test much.

I wonder if it'd be practical to, say, run all the contrib regression
tests concurrently in different databases of one installation.
