ADO.NET DataReader

Learned a new thing about the ADO.NET DataReader (System.Data.IDataReader) class/interface today.

When you acquire a DataReader for an open connection object, then "the Connection is in use exclusively by that DataReader", says the SDK.

OK, I understand, but I would share a single connection between multiple transactions and multiple DataReaders. Maybe in ADO.NET 2.0, who knows?
