When the DB file (digikam4.db) isn't writable, the user is only warned when making changes, in the UI.  Would be preferable to be warned on launch.

1. Remove write permission from digikam4.db
2. Launch digikam
3. Attempt to create a new tag

OBSERVED RESULT

Error displayed in Step 3.


EXPECTED RESULT

Error displayed in Step 2.
