[ok, I'm a retart...this was supposed to be a comment, not a description change]

I'm uploading a patch that should do this. It does it dynamically, from the database, but this is really only going to be used for development purposes, so I think that's acceptable. We can't save the option in the local options table because changes in the main blog won't be reflected. I'm open to suggestions here as to an alternate strategy.

    v2 v3  
    11I've had several clients ask me to set up a test install of their blog so that they can try out theme changes and plugins without compromising their main blog.  If we let a constant determine the options table, they could use the same table_prefix as their main blog, but just specify a different options table so plugins, home/siteurl, themes could be different, but all the other blog data (posts, comments, links, categories) would be the same.
