Still thinking about the fact that WAL being a new software feature and actually becomes a new file format change, the latter option can solve this (if it's technically possible and not hard to append of course). The logic can be like this, if WAL=TEMPORAL, the first reader/writer that accesses the base makes the changes to 18,19 bytes (=2) allowing it and following reader/writers work in WAL mode and the last reader/writer that closes the base, reverts it back (=1) allowing the file format stays the same. Sure there are possible cases when the format still changed (for example unexpected program end), but the next successful open/close will fix this.
