One database connection to span a lift-session

[Baskaran S]

Hi,

Does Lift allow one database connection to span an entire lift-session? Basically, issue multiple DDL and DML statements using one connection that spans a lift-session. Of course, on a per user basis for a small pool of users (say 10).

Similar to how admin tools (phpMyAdmin, MySQL Workbench, Toad, etc.,) maintain a database connection over a long duration (3 plus minutes) and allow multiple transactions where each transaction can issue many DDL and DML statements.

Any ideas on how to approach this use case?
