This bug comes from the philosophy that errors should be reported as early
as possible to the user.
I ran into a case where 'add' allowed to me add a file that I couldn't
record. There seems to be no point in allowing this, so I consider it a
bug.
I have a patch for a test case to illustrate this which I will submit
momentarily.
(This bug is present in 1.0.3).
