Igor,

I did say "controlled" concurrency. 

I'll rephrase question 3.

3) Would use of a MUTEX to avoid the dreaded "SQLite busy" condition be a
good solution? Or is some other method of avoiding a busy condition
recommended?

Yes.

You can have multiple open connections, from the same or different 
processes, at any given time. You can keep a connection open as long as 
necessary.

I'm not sure I understand this question. Mutexes are all about _not_ 
allowing concurrency.
