As far as I know it has never done this...  it's not something I've ever 
tried though.  Basically it can only make one server connection per 
client instance, so a root on a different server can't be used - there 
are some comments in the source to this effect and it makes sense 
(especially given the number of global variables... the effects would be 
very unpredictable).
