 * While you hold an instance of CoreDbAccess, the database access is locked for other threads,
 * but _not_ for other processes. This is due to the fact that while databases allow
 * concurrent access (of course), their client libs may not be thread-safe.
 *
 * When initializing your application, you need to call two methods:
 * - in a not-yet-multithreaded context, you need to call setParameters
 * - to make sure that the database is available and the schema
 *   is properly initialized, call checkReadyForUse()
