I was just going to suggest that myself -- or rather, blacklist all
MODE-SENSE(x) commands from all USB disk-type devices.
Is there any strong reason not to do this? Bear in mind that Windows
apparently does not use these commands. I don't see how not knowing the
true read-write status or caching type will hurt anything. (And the
read-write status can be adjusted, if necessary, when a WRITE command
fails with Medium Error: Write Protected sense.)
