It is possible to implement this, but it is currently not implemented. Unfortunately, the core developers don't have the time right now, unless maybe a support contract between XPertNet and your company is established. So the only solutions are to use method 3, or find someone to get inside the XWiki core and implement support for method 2.

Thanks to organize my questions Sergiu Dumitriu!

I want to do the item 2. We have considered the item
3, but as I have mentioned before our DBA team
probably will not let us to do this - don't ask me why
:-).
So the question remains: Is it possible to setup
really different wiki's on the same database (server
and "tables")?
