Nothing stops you from connecting to the database however you’d like. I can’t
quite imagine what scenario a user would enter the full connection dictionary
or how an app would then connect to a database that is somehow ‘unknown’ or
introduced by the user, so maybe it’s just hard for folks to get an idea of why
this would exist in the first place?
I'd elaborate on your goals rather than your chosen course of action because I
don’t think it’s easy to imagine for folks to help you.
