# This class encapsulates a unit of work done for a particular tenant, connected to that tenant's database.
# ActiveRecord makes it _very_ hard to do in a simple manner and clever stuff is required, but it is knowable.
#
# What this class provides is a "misuse" of the database "roles" of ActiveRecord to have a role per tenant.
# If all the tenants are predefined, it can be done roughly so:
#
# ActiveRecord::Base.legacy_connection_handling = false if ActiveRecord::Base.respond_to?(:legacy_connection_handling)
