   * - Both request discover no existing connection. They both make a connection.
   * - The first request "wins the race".
   * - The second request discovers it "lost the race" and closes the connection it just opened.
   * - The second request uses the coalesced connection from request1.
   * - The coalesced connection is violently closed after servicing the first request.

This is very useful when you need to:

* Have shared logic (the same code logic again and again).
* Share database connections.
* Enforce security, authentication, role requirements, etc.
* And many other things...

All these, while minimizing code repetition.
