Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-4171:
-------------------------------------------

One potential problem with (2) is that in a multi-user environment, one user 
can create an in-memory database with the same path as a known, unbooted 
disk-based database, and thereby prevent other users from booting the 
disk-based database.

Which compatibility issues would we see when moving from (1) to (2) that we 
won't see when moving from the current situation to (2)?
