yes a thing I'm not sure has ever been a good idea.
to be able to have sam2sam that is really read a backend + store all
info into another backend we may take several ways.

We never need the 2 backend to be loaded at the same time to do the
operation, we may easily read all the accounts chnage the backend and
store them into the new one, or simply make custom code to load 2
different backends, and use theyr calls.

It's easy to have 2 structures calle backend1 and backend2 that holds
the functon pointers for 2 backends.

Al the context things always seemed to me overcomplicated even for
multiple backend code.

Simo.
