Oh sorry. Well, if we really do not want this we may want to document this and keep educating users, but meanwhile probably the product should be more user friendly for the case, especially considering that we know the fix would be trivial and I suspect it is inevitable that some extensions put some read only files (e.g. credentials files) in pgdata.
