If the module really requires a db, then it will fail to start.

Does it make sense to keep this separation between RW and RO ? 
personally I never used it...somehow is non-sense (as security) for a 
single application to connect in the same time, to the same DB with RW 
and RO (for different modules).....my 2 cents..
