In my case, its a backup database file that users would like to keep even if they uninstall the app (the user's data, not mine). For other applications, I guess it would depend on their requirements. Just wondering if there were any best practices or some consensus that I was ignoring.

Its not kludgy, if LVL throws quickly if it can't access the connection state, its probably the best way to handle it. If it waits for a network timeout before it throws, it might as well not throw anything. Disclaimer: haven't used it, haven't seen the source, but if they have the permission
