The recent discussion on php-dev regarding mysql_connect's new parameter
'force link', today raised an issue, which could only exist in my mind,
but then again - it may not.

Say - you're a hosting company:
-- one user ->  one database -> one login -> one password.
x users per databaseserver = (x * (max_httpd_childs / cache_factor)) + 
SAFE_GUARD = max mysql connections.

This new boolean, totally whacks that equation.

Hosting companies generally run in safe mode, so:
1) Did I miss something, and is this boolean disregarded in safe mode?
2) If not - I can't find the safe_mode config setting to enable it
3) If 1) and 2) should we issue a warning and start working on 2) asap?
