Uli I think this question deserves a more complete explanation.
This seems like a reasonable request. If you disagree then it would not hurt
to explain why.
There seems to be a valid concern related to reliable implementation of
recursive read locks with writer priority. As in this discusion:

If this your concern then saying so would help resolve/close this issue.
