It is indeed the "correct" behaviour.  It is SQLite that does this.  I
actually use this as part of the test suite since it was the only way I
could think of deliberately causing an error on a read only blob.

This is alluded to in
http://apsw.googlecode.com/svn/publish/blob.html#apsw.blob.close

I have since updated the documentation to mention this specific example
and blame SQLite :-)
