I agree, since that makes error/exception handling easier. On the
subject of open(), I also would like it to have a read_only option, if
that is possible. I am not even sure that a read-only state is tracked
through the library, or if the writing attempts just fail with an file
access error.
Or is there already a way to open the database read only?

May i stress again that the test should be during open() imo?
And rather not using a 2nd function to examine the db.
