I have a lot of respect for pgbouncer (haven't used pgpool).  One
possible way to do what you're thinking is to rotate the pool on user.
 In bouncer each database role gets its own pool (if you understand
how transaction mode works you can see why it has to work this way).
Not sure if this is helpful.  Why are you trying to separate the pools
like that?
