in my apps, i attach a db connection object to the request.

It's basically just a wrapper that holds SqlAlchemy connections

my code tends to look like this:

    class AView():
        @viewconfig(...)
        def something(self):
             self._setupDb('reader')

the _setupDb function attaches an object that has a .reader and/or .writer 
attribute , and in keeping with some really old Pylons conventions -- 
 issues an initial rollback and adds an 'add_finished_callback' to the 
request that will issue a close() on the SqlAlchemy ScopedSession(s).  [ i 
use separate reader and writer connections for both replication and a bit 
of security , one day i'll move to sharding - just not today ].

i have a few questions about this setup:

   1. i recall seeing an announcement a few weeks ago about the 
set_request_method adding some sort of lazy access by incorporating @reify 
.  has anyone used this for establishing dbConnections yet ?

   2. does anyone know if the initial rollback and cleanup of 
the ScopedSession are needed anymore ?
