If you run the NSS command line tools and specify the mozilla directory

But by default, the command line tools use "read only" access to the

Varies from tool to tool, and in some tools it varies based on what
you asked the tool to do. Maybe we should publish a table of that info.
Of course one must be carefull to run only tools that only need the
"read only" access, and not certutil for example.
It is true that multiple processes, ALL of whom use read-only mode, can
simultaneously use the cert and key DBs. But if even one process has the
DB open read-write, then the others may not safely use it. The browser
always holds them open RW.
