Plus points :

+ If you need to join between tables you will *need* to do this

Minus points :

- You will need to make sure tables for application aa and bb don't have the
same name (so aa_contacts and bb_contacts)

- Security: make sure each application runs as a different user and only has
access to the tables is is supposed to.

- It is harder to back up individual applications' data
