There are two elements that need to be put together as I figured it out:

- are there any usable data we want to preserve, if not set the status to blank
- can we append a session - for rewritable DVD we can't with two exceptions: a 
virgin DVD+RW (that is reported "blank" by the drive) and DVD-RW in sequential 
mode which basically works like CD-RW and needs no patch to work

I think that's it from me, the DVD-RW so called "Restricted Overwrite"
was tested to the least extent as I had such discs in sequential mode
and they worked out of the box. Now let's wait for the feedback.
