   Aside from their surprise at the observation, what kind of impact did this 
cause? Do we know how long the user's scans were delayed? Was it reasonable? 
Was it a problem? I'm asking because I don't want to add a bunch of complexity 
and configuration knobs if it's not really a problem, and it's not clear from 
the discussion how much, if at all, it is a problem.
   
   The current behavior seems "safe", and I'm also reluctant to add knobs to 
allow the user to shoot themselves in the foot and perform operations that 
aren't really safe. Also, if the user doesn't care about consistency, can't 
they query using a ScanServer instead? If so, it's probably fine if this is 
what users get when the access a read/write server (tserver).
