      Create two users:
      The first shall be named 'x@y' and will exist on 'z'.
      The second shall be named 'x' and will exist on 'y@z'.

      In window 1:

      > use z
switched to db z
> db.createUser({user: "x@y", pwd: "pwd", roles: []})
Successfully added user: { "user" : "x@y", "roles" : [ ] }
> db.auth("x@y", "pwd")
1
> use dbx
switched to db dbx

      In window 2:

      > use y@z
switched to db y@z
> db.createUser({user: "x", pwd: "pwd", roles: []})
Successfully added user: { "user" : "x", "roles" : [ ] }
> db.auth("x", "pwd")

> use dbx

> db.col.insert({})
WriteResult({ "nInserted" : 1 })
> db.col.find({$where: "globalThing = \"B\"; return true"})

      Back in the first window:

      db.col.find({$where: "print(globalThing); globalThing = \"A\"; return true"})

      Mongod will print "B".

      The ScopePool identifies the scope it should acquire from its map by creating a key with the following structure:

      <db><JSOperation>[\0<user>@<db>]

      As '@' is a legal character in both <user> and <db>, it is possible to construct two users so as to cause a collision.
