Opening a new connection actually seems the most promising approach to
this humble poster.  Managing multiple connections is already on the
todo list -- it could be used for compilation buffers, for instance.
So just opening a new connection on a reentrant call would be fairly
easy to do, once the infrastructure is in place.
