      1. What would you like to communicate to the user about this feature?
      2. Would you like the user to see examples of the syntax and/or executable code and its output?
      3. Which versions of the driver/connector does this apply to?

      Currently, you need to use the * or -> operators on a pool::entry to use the underlying client. So it is a little awkward to use when doing client operations (e.g. obtaining a database), e.g. here:

      auto coll = (*client)["test"][collection_names[static_cast<std::size_t>(j)]];

      Perhaps instead, the pool::entry could also have an [] operator overload for obtaining the database?
