But DBAL can be used to connect to another DB (also another MySQL db)? 
Page 6 of the manual provides an example for defining an alternative 
connection for a few tables.

I think that the DBAL solution also provides support for using this 
extra connection in TS, etc.

Can you give us a use case and an example for how to use this 
alternative method?
