Yes, but I find this a very unlikely feature, for a few reasons. First,
there is a completely acceptable "workaround", as you call it. Second, you
are the first person in my recollection to ask for this, so there is
obviously not a high demand. Third, anything that goes cross-database
is subject to lots of very careful care and handling, and I doubt adding
that complexity is worth the small benefit gained.
