I wonder whether Massimo was referring to the possibility that a DB can
get into an unrecoverable state when you reach the disk space limit -
there's no room to create a rollback journal so you can't delete any
records or vacuum. Obviously this is only a concern for systems with
limited disk space.

It would be great to see a disk quota management system in a future
version of SQLite - or at least a way to associate sqlite3_file objects
with the DB connections that created them. I'm trying to implement a
quota system at the VFS level for an embedded platform, but it is
proving tricky to manage temp files...

Cheers,
Dave.
