Beware of apps that use DmQueryRecord (rather than DmGetRecord), and then
proceed to DmWrite after locking the handle they get back. There's nothing
preventing apps from doing this. Also, changes to app info and sort info
blocks won't necessarily bump the modification number. If you want to know
when the database is modified by a conduit, look for changes in the backup
timestamp in the database header.
