Haven't really thought about it. If it's there, it's probably useful for
RU's that are not "Persistently Isolated". But let's not worry about it
now, we can just say you don't get to use write streams for these.

I haven't come across any, no.

But more about the return codes for pretty much all the errors here.
They'll prevent the namespace from being visible, but I think you just
want to set the limits to disable write streams instead. Otherwise it'd
be a regression since namespaces configured this way are currently
usable.
