You called out five distinct features in 0/5, so how about
a bit for each of those?
Actually, there are more than five in that list - there are three in the first
item - and I'm not sure the remaining categories are quite as well defined as
I made it seem.

Also, that sort of categorisation might not be what we actually need: it might
end up coming down to a no-write vs no-read-or-write split instead.
Actually, I don't care which way you go. The current code works
for me. I am just concerned that the granularity fiends might come
around later.
In that case, I'll leave it as is for the moment.  It doesn't introduce so
many calls that they're impossible to change.
