Multiple sites, multiple databases, one Django installation? Middleware?

Just wondering whether I could write a middleware that parsed
request.path, say:

/django/site1/index

extracted and removed the site name as "site1" and switched the
settings on the fly to use settings_site1.py instead.
settings_site1.py would use DB named "site1_db".

Then it would process the response to re-insert "site" so that re-
directions and links point to the correct site?

So I would have individual sites:

/django/site1/index
/django/site2/index
/django/site3/index
/django/site4/index

Each with its own database but from one codebase. The code doesn't use
the Sites framework, which I don't want anyway as I believe it
requires a difference application instance per site. I found a multi
host middleware via Google but that won't work as my sites are not
virtual hosts. Any ideas?

Thanks
