ASP.NET MembershipProvider applicattionName attribute: What it works for?

Its my first time asking here, i hope get help, and meanwhile, help you ppl too =)

My question is very simple:

What is the point of the applicationName attribute in the Membership Provider tables in ASP.NET?

I was thinking of implementing my own membership provider, but taking that attribute out. Is there anything wrong with it?

Thanks in advance

This attribute is used when you store membership data for multiple applications in the same database. For instance, if you have 2 applications Foo and Bar, you could have a user "John Doe" in both applications, but since they would have different application names, they wouldn't be considered as the same user
