I wanted to log out of read-only mode to test logging in with 3rd party services, but got this error:

> DELETE [https://forum.quantifiedself.com/session/Dan\_Dascalescu](https://forum.quantifiedself.com/session/Dan_Dascalescu) 405 (Method Not Allowed)

(followed by a bunch of Ember errors).

It makes sense to not be able to delete my session if the DB is read-only, but perhaps better handling is possible.

Sure @tgxworld can you add code to this path that skips the logout attempt when the site is read only?
