I can't understand the need for this complication read - write business. Is
it heaps fatser to read then to write so it deserved such a complicated
approach?
Besides Autodesk gurus should be able to know when we're reading and when
we're not, or at least be more strict for example
const AcDbEntity *openForReading();
and
AcDbEntity* openForWriting();
this way the user can't change the const data if he's reading it and would
minimize the occurances of many bugs.
