Carel:

I agree that the wording seems imprecise, but I don't think #2 is at all 
obvious.

If multiple users are submitting SQL statements, there's no reason to expect 
that they are _all always_ connected to the _same_ RDB. There seems to be an 
implication here that CLI Server mode opens a potential path for concurrent 
connections to multiple RDBs.

How that might be put to advantage, I have no idea -- nor any idea even _if_ it 
can. It just seems to open a different window of opportunity.
