Is there a valid use case? It seems like it might be a tricky method, because its an IndexReader property and not the index. A user should probably technically treat read-only/non-read-only the same because it does not imply a different IndexReader didn't make changes/do deletes?

It doesn't sync deletes, but should you use the API any differently?

I don't see it hurting anything of course, but is there a real use case?
