I'm +1 for slipping this one in under the wire, if it matters.

I'm not just randomly pushing a feature here -- I think the multiple-reader/ one-writer atomicity guarantees this will give us will be extremely important for CGI programmers, who often need a light-duty database facility with exactly this kind of concurrency guarantee.
