What is the current behavior?

When trying to access the default connection mongoose.connection is a nice way for other files to access models via mongoose.model('Model'). However when you have multiple connections via createConnection there's no nice way for other files to access the model. Yes I know there's conn.useDb('asdf').model('Model') but that only works if the connection has been made and access to that conn object is done.

With the default connection this is trivial because mongoose.model doesn't care if the default connection is even up and running yet, but when you're trying to access a model that's been registered on a connection with createConnection it immediately checks if the model has been registered on that connection.

We actually have a mongoose.connections property, it just isn't documented unfortunately. Will add.
