Edit Grid and default_transaction_read_only

Hi,

I've never hacked on pgAdmin yet, so I'm curious from those who have:

What sounds like the smartest way to make updates in the Edit Grid
not fail when connected to a database with default_transaction_read_only
set to on? :

1. Just send every update wrapped in START TRANSACTION READ WRITE
... COMMIT ?

2. Don't do that by default, but trap the "error: transaction is
read only" and reissue the update with START TRANSACTION READ WRITE
in that case?

3. Query the backend for SHOW DEFAULT_TRANSACTION_READ_ONLY and then
issue updates wrapped in START TRANSACTION READ WRITE only if it
was ON?

4. Just send a SET SESSION DEFAULT_TRANSACTION_READ_ONLY TO OFF and
forget about it?

I'm asking because we noticed in 1.14.2 that it doesn't do any of
these things yet, but just surprises the innocent user with the
"error: transaction is read only".
