I have starting look at the query object select statement. The select method accept for_update, and nowait in kwargs if the arg does not have a _selectable attribute. Not sure what happens down the other path.
Since the select method already takes for_update and nowait keywords because it self.compile use sql.select and passes in the keyword args. It is the self.compile that uses sql.select and that handles the keyword args. I can modify the sql.select to handle the lockmode as keyword arg and then we have for_update, nowait and lockmode for dealing with locking. If both lockmode and for_update, or nowait are use which one do we take ? lockmode = None ---------for_update=False nowait=False lockmode = read ---------for_update=read nowait=False lockmode = upgrade-------for_update=True nowait=False lockmode = update_nowait for_update=True nowaite=True should I add lockmode to sql.select ? should I add for_update=read to handle lockmode=read ?
