docs: Overrides dictionary get behavior to retrieve database objects with
          support for returning a default.  If remote=True then a remote
          request is made to retrieve the database from the remote server,
          otherwise the client's locally cached database object is returned.
  
          :param str key: Database name used to retrieve the database object.
          :param str default: Default database name.  Defaults to None.
          :param bool remote: Dictates whether the locally cached
              database is returned or a remote request is made to retrieve
              the database from the server.  Defaults to False.
  
          :returns: Database object
