to update from the 'save', 'insert', 'update', etc. now fails. I also
have the accessors throwing Exception::Class objects if someone tries
to set an attribute value. However, it's a nasty hack because the

As a side note, it might be nice if a 'readonly' metadata class were
natively available in Rose::DB::Object, with an optional way of
allowing it to be read/write. I know I can create said objects

No, since that'd require extra

I just use a bad db handle for all things rose, then have a custom
