Github user ajs6f commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/jena/pull/161 Sorry, I let this go without replying. No, the `DatasetGraphTransaction.promotion` isn't really my concern. It's the fact that you start a read transaction on a dataset, then try to write, and instead of getting an exception, you get promoted. That seems a bit surprising and dangerous to me. I'm not trying to block this, but wouldn't it be possible to add a new value for `ReadWrite` now instead of after the fact? Old code could just ignore it and new code could check for it to see if promotion is enabled for the given transaction.
