I didn't understand your example. Perhaps you're looking for an extra
command to make the current connection buffer-local in a buffer.

Slime-cycle-connections making the new connection buffer-local means for
example that making another connection the default connection via
slime-list-connections will lead to surprises. 

Additionally, buffer-local connections can become stale, rendering the
.lisp buffer useless.
